Eco Friendly School Is In Session

August not only marks the end of summer but also the start of another school year. Back To School time can be exciting with the prospect of new supplies. Fresh notebooks, pens, pencils, and new backpacks spark joy. (Or maybe that's just us?) But for those looking to keep school supplies sustainable, this time of year can bring on a sense of dread. Plastic packaging, single use items, and toxic components are just a few of the downsides. 
To help, we've compiled a list of ways to stay sustainable and eco friendly this school year. 
Reuse:
Take stock of what you have around the house. Chances are you will find leftover notebooks with mostly blank pages along with pens, pencils and markers that still work. 
Bonus: Do you have these supplies laying around but don't need? Donate to a local school, second hand store, or neighbor with school age children.
For those items you might need but do not have from last year, search second hand websites and stores for things like graphing calculators, tablets and textbooks. 

Shop Smart:

For items that can't be checked off your list with these two options, opt for a zero waste online store. 

EARTHHERO is a great site with everything you could possible need to head back to the classroom. From writing utensils, notebooks and backpacks, and even a bamboo wireless mouse, this website takes the stress out of shopping sustainably.
