Switch up the cleanersLike most of the tips on this list, switching your cleaners to a more natural solution has a dual purpose. Decreasing your plastic footprint and limiting your exposure to toxic chemicals. Vinegar (which you can buy in glass bottles) is a natural disinfectant and antibacterial agent, while baking soda (comes in a cardboard box) provides all of the gentle scouring you could ever need. Mix in a few drops of your favorite essential oils, and you’re good to go.
