Packaging

Wow,

Well, I wake up- and check my cellphone. Brush my teeth, shave and then wash my hands and face. Eat breakfast, eggs, cereal and orange juice. Shower, then use the restroom. Put my clothes on, check my facebook. Drive to the gas station, pick up a power bar and Gatorade. Work till close, come home. Case of beer, buddies and Yahtzee. sleep

Cell- Cardboard box wrapped with cellophane. Then a large Styrofoam insert.
Toothbrush- Cardboard and Plastic
Razor- Weird Little plastic thing
Shaving Cream- Large aluminum casing
Hand Soap- Plastic bottle
Cereal- Cardboard box and plastic like wrapper?
Eggs- Styrofoam
Orange Juice- Plastic Bottle
Bodywash- Plastic container
Shampoo- Another plastic container
Socks- Some kind of plastic wrap
Boxers- The same packaging
Computer- Huge combination of common packaging items
Power Bar- Plastic wrapper
Gatorade- Plastic bottle
Beer Cans- Aluminum

Honestly, this post at first aggravated me. I thought it was ridiculous to think of all my packaging. But I realized the majority of everything I buy, I use until its empty and throw it away. Every item named above is virtually "disposable", therefore all the waste is going into a dump. And the items aren't environmentally friendly either. These plastics and styrofoams will sit for years to come, and be doubled and tripled faster than they break down. Overall, this post was a real eye opener.
