Poll: Could you go waste-free?

Reporter Manawatū Standard

Tēnā koutou e hoa mā,

The Manawatū Standard's local columnist, Carly Thomas, has become a waste-free warrior. She lugs her keep-cups and tote bags everywhere she shops to reduce her impact on our ever increasing mountains of rubbish.

She's noticed supermarkets and stores are adapting to the needs of the waste-free warrior, making it easier to adapt to the lifestyle.

Do you think you could go waste-free?
