Gotta admit, she is super impressive. She is super committed to living a zero waste life and I love her passion towards saving the environment.
I thought the lifestyle seemed really approachable too.
That is very untrue, you don't need to be perfect, some people can't
But the little things matter and small changes can help don't discourage people for trying to help the environment
czcams.com/video/60klPiG7bZ4/video.html I recommend watching his video!
She is a liar
Zero waste is the biggest lie I have ever heard. As long as you use vehicles, airplanes, trains or any diesel using method of transportation, you do not produce zero waste. When you go and buy recyclable jars and grocery bags it's not zero waste since since a method of transportation was used to avail them to your local grocery store. These recyclable 'zero waste' products are produced in factories which emmit waste. The point of this rant is that as humans we cannot produce zero waste all we can do is try and reduce it how we know best, so instead of using the term zero waste it's better if we used less waste.
And not a single broken phone charger... I think that's the real inspiration here...
I don't know where you live but in America we have Bestbuy stores which have bins for old electronics and cords for recycling. I take mine there 😏
So you can recycle your phone chargers?
@@Eggo2341 oh yes. Chargers, cables, rechargeable batteries, electronic devices. Their parts are being reused. But people don't bother to take them there so they go in the trash. Really sad.
@@Eggo2341 There's a place for textiles also to be recycled.
Wow! Let’s hope we have them here in the UK!
The camera person must have felt awkward
Lifeify maybe they ate off camera 🤷♀️
Omg
the normal life of a camera person...
eh he’s getting paid
he literally went on a date with this women I wonder if she used a condom
"Condom is a trash that I produce."
All right.
Henry Reign lmao
I'm just relieved she didn't pull a used one out of her garbage jar.
But no condom in the jar
@@leoacosta352 Wonder if she has like another mason jar just choke full of used condoms.
Bet that jar smelled great with used condoms festering for years when she opened it... 🤮
step 1: get a really big mason jar
-like an absolut huge one
Why is it called a mason jar and not just a jar
Shadow the ocean is my mason jar
*1 man, 1 jar*
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Get a mason jar the size of a trash can and tell everyone that all of ur trash can fit in a mason jar
Great chemistry between those two.
Lauren Is soooooo beautiful, she Is literally glowing, her hair is full and shiny and her cheeks are so rosy! How Is she like this when she makes her hygiene products herself? She Is really good at this stuff, wow.
Kaytie, she is so not the least BECAUSE she makes everything herself! Try to shift to a face cleanser or a “shampoo” made from scratch, or a tooth powder - and you’ll very soon notice the difference.
Kaytie can
Kaytie it is literally her clean, healthy eating habits. You'd be surprised what you look like clean eating and fully hydrated with enough sleep
This comment makes me feel uncomfortable
Alissa Holidays why?
She can peel the sticker off and put it on another tomato
Salty_Af but that trash is still going to the landfill only someone else is sending it there
The cashier may not recognize what tomato it is
That's cheating tho
Lol that’s what I was thinking
Some stickers on produce are compostable
I feel like her and the interview got along REALLLYYY well. 😂
i agree
Wow she is gorgeous wtf
yeah but she has crazy eyes , and thats not good
I don’t see any crazy in those eyes.

@@YOLO-sp5bi 😁
Ik shes beautiful inside and out.
Wow they’re so... cute together... is that odd??
This woman seems so humble and friendly! These comments are frustrating because I don't think any of them are actually about the zero waste lifestyle! I've been looking into getting into it, this is really inspiring.
vegan enthusiast she runs a store now called package free shop look it up on Instagram! :)
vegan enthusiast you can do it. I support your decision to help.
I have slowly been transitioning to low waste over the years. Every change I make has improved my life, reduced waste, and saved me money. Seven years ago I started by cleaning my house in a greener way. I stopped buying all those plastic spray bottles and started cleaning with rags, vinegar, or just Norwex cloths.
@@PurplePanda0707 i am only 15, but im slowly putting together a video playlist of inspiration for adulthood. And the city i am hoping to move to for university is super progressive and has lots of local health food stores that also sell items in bulk.

i was hoping there was a comment like this

Omg after u mentioned this, it became soooooo obvious!,!
I am baffled why this young lady is getting bashed for trying to keep her trash to a minimum. I appreciate your channel and plan on incorporating your ideas into my own home. Thanks!
Probably because she is going to unreasonable lengths. When it just impacting her, she can be as crazy with it as she wants, each to their own ya'know. But grilling the staff for putting a small sticker on her smoothie, and then insisting that she reuses it for someone else is annoying for the staff, but more importantly, it shows us the lengths this has manifested itself in her mind. She is fine with the sticker going on someone else's beverage, but not her own. This seems to imply that she has a issue in her mind, where as long as it isn't literally caused by her, then it is acceptable. This type of Obsessive compulsion will often grow over time, and make her a very frustrating individual to spend time with. Like I say, I'm not bashing her for being proactive at minimizing her waste, but there is definitely an unhealthy obsessive undertone here.
Ash Lawson woah yeah sure you can diagnose someone.
Ash "each to their own" well... sooo.. you have your own ocean?!
Connie: people get annoyed, because they are reminded of their lack of care.... and instead of improving themselves and their life(style) they bash her, because that's easier and more convenient... and they can keep their illusion about being caring ect... -> morons
Ash Lawson She didn’t grill the staff members, it wasn’t annoying for the staff to take away the stickers and she even said thank you after the staff put the stickers back. She does disagree with others not recycling or living with minimum trash but she knows not everyone can follow her path or even want to try so why bother changing a closed mindset when you can convince the open ones.
NOTE: she now owns a store called package free shop in NY! They have great plastic free options if this video inspired you:)

I need to adapt this lifestyle. I feel so depressed that I'm contributing so much to the environment and leaving my carbon footprint behind. I need to learn the ways of "zero-waste"
ill join you!
I think I will start too
You spoke every word in my mind.
Yeiii lets do it
i am so late. but me too.
i totally support her cause but they don’t mention how rich you have to be to do this
peppermint teabag I completely understand that you probably do have to spend more money on food, but I also think that zero waste prioritises reusing and buying second hand, meaning that much less money is spent on things like clothes, furniture and cosmetics, so I think it about levels out in the end ☺️
If you want to do something like this you can start slowly (ie switch out one alternative at a time) or save up to do it all at once.
You can actually save a lot of money. Try comparing your spendings with both lifestyles. In the end, you are voting with your money.
U gotta buy organic everything. No prepackaged items.
I do this and I can confirm it's expensive. I'm fortunate enough to have the money but buying all the aluminium containers and water bottles and products to make your own cleaning products along with the package free shampoo bars and organic vegetables from the farmers market adds up to a ridiculous amount. I wish the people who promote this would be more honest that you actually have to have quite a bit of money to do it. Anyone who says otherwise is lying!
I went to my local Whole Foods and brought mason jars to buy bulk items....
I went to the bulk section and the rules stated: Do not use personal items. Please use plastic containers.
THAT LITERALLY DEFEATS THE PURPOSE.
what?? really???
@@chump8035 Yes!! I even asked a worker and he explained that bringing personal mason jars pose a "health risk".
I know! At my local bakery i brought my own bees wax wrap and the miss was likr " ew whats that " and i said " well could u wrap it in this please? I dont want a plas-" she started screaming like " YOU CANT JUST BRING YOUR OWN THING ITS DISGUSTANG,HYGIENE etc" i was like 0_o sorry from tryna save the earth mam x)
@@caprisunessence7432 o.o You're saving them money and the only thing its touching is their hands which should be gloved or the counter. Both have to be sanitized anyways.
That’s interesting because my local Whole Foods doesn’t have signs like that and lots of customers use personal items when they shop.
I love what she is doing. She shows everyone what is possible. But if she were ugly, everyone would call her crazy. I think thats very sad. She has a TV face...

Loll
wow it rolled out and everything lol
Robert Tolppi did a fantastic video on why she produces far *more* waste than the jar. If you ask me, the jar is not realistic or representative of all the waste she (and her business that transports condoms, among other goods across the United States in fancy "reusable" packaging, products that are no different from what you can buy near you with a far lower carbon footprint) produces, and the jar is simply a marketing tactic for said business.
TheSleepingInsomniac Yes!
This isn’t realistic to everyone. And actually harms the cause.
ikr like I came from his video too
It’s still a humongous decrease in waste-most households produce tall garbage bags full of trash every week
@@Michelle-rv9ks So think about how much garbage her company produces by manufacturing its goods. You think they have zero waste up the entire chain? That'd be completely ludicrous and impossible.
I wish buying more eco friendly foods were cheaper :(
Chantelle Heatley true, the main reasons people buy chocolate and other prepackaged things is because they are both convenient and they taste good. Things like vegetables and fruits without packaging are typically more expensive from large stores, or about the same. However they are much cheaper at farmers markets.
Nicole Bartholomew You’re so right, farmers markets are so difficult to find and when you do find one they are way more than a regular store :/
Doesn't get much cheaper than buying bulk grains, pasta, and legumes. You can still shop produce at your regular grocer, just don't buy the produce wrapped in plastic. Don't over-complicate.
@@sarahgernannt vegetables and fruits are easy to buy without plastic, but I find the grains and other pantry goods challenging, mainly because the bulk buy food store that doesn't have plastic is 5 times more expensive than the plastic packaged goods, which is just something I can't afford. 😔
@@SmileMangaArt Wow what store is that? I've only ever found bulk grains for a fraction of the packaged price. I got 5lbs of oats the other day for a $1.50. I got 10lbs of long brown rice for $8. I've never seen bulk be more expensive than packaged. o.o
she kind of reminds me of Cher from clueless

You don't have to be a guy to say she's your type, just saying...

Am I seeing red profiles or am I litteraly hallucinating
y’all are just making condom jokes. what she’s doing is amazing and takes lots of discipline, dedication, and attention. y’all could never.

she put a condom in the trash after this interview

Imagine bashing someone for trying to save the earth. Wack
People bash the Lord and SAVIOUR Jesus Christ all the time. He shed His blood on the cross to pay for your sins and died in your place and was buried and the third day he arose from the dead VICTORIOUS over sin and death to give WHOSOEVER believeth EVERLASTING life through His name. I hope this young lady in the video comes to know Him before it's too late and if you don't, I hope you do too. Jesus loves you. ❤
Who's bashing her though?
Jaime Transforming not Conforming - what does Jesus have to do with a girl going waste free? This seems like an unnecessary placement of your religion, and while I respect your beliefs, that isn’t relevant.

@@Maddysublime perhaps because it’s probably easier to run her business in a city rather than an urban area
OK, what about condoms, and pills, and syringes ?
How can they be packaged *without plastic foil ?*
epSos.de She already said that condoms and vitamins are a source of trash for her. You don’t have to be perfect; just do your best.
Priscila Sierra yes keep the aliens out
THAT is the biggest lie out there! There is no over population. Plenty of starving persons- but not because there are too many. But rather because it is deliberate depopulation by the ruling class.
look up Trash is for tossers she had a lot of newer stuff. you can get different reusable condoms and foil wrap
She washes and reuses the condoms and the syringes. When you flip the condom inside out, it is like brand new.

Actually like her because unlike everyone else zero waste she isn’t patronising 😂😂
the problem with reusing your own jar say at a place where you wanna get that smoothies, a lot of businesses would turn you down for "hygienic and health" reasons even if you claim your jar is clean. the food safety agency or the health department would penalize a business if they go along with this.
You're definitely wrong! The employee that turns you down is ignorant. If you ask for the manager or a DIFFERENT EMPLOYEE you will be served and get the smoothie in the mason jar.
Ionela Fessler I totally agree with you! And I know at Starbucks you can bring your own cup or metal straw and they never turn it down
@@hakunamatada178 I gave it a like ;)
Definitely true, i often get turned down
tootsie|troll® then why aren’t they allowed to wash the jar themselves?! That would make the jars clean, and if they couldn’t do that, then that proves that their own containers aren’t clean either, meaning they care 0% for hygiene. So why don’t they just clean the jar themselves?
This is all great, but remember that corporations are the main cause of waste in general! If you want to think about it based off of a ratio, for every mason jar of trash people produce, a major company produces on average seven jars worth of trash. Upstream waste in manufacturing is a huge problem no matter where you shop from. Hold companies accountable while doing what you can within your means! You don’t have to buy products from a company to start a zero waste journey. Don’t let trash jars and elitist attitudes within the community stop you from being more eco friendly. Anything helps:)
Agree with you! We need to vote with our wallets
7:12-7:36.....Methinks something's abrewin' between these two. :)

If everyone generated even 10x her trash it would be a better world.

You don't even need straws! There are so many things that people have grown to believe are necessities, and they're not
Yes, it is not necessary to use straws but it actually is beneficial. Dentists suggest using straws so that less carbonated drinks stain your teeth and produce more plaque.
+Alex M. Or, don't drink carbonated drinks :)

straws are actually better because they prevent sugars and carbonated drinks from getting on your teeth and causing problems. and i just like straws. be quiet.

No biggie she can reuse it. Just toss it in the jar with the plastic straws and the used condoms.

The Bachelorette: Saving the earth edition
By reading some comments I'm really surprised by how harsh and mean some people can be. What Lauren Singer is doing is fantastic, and definitely not easy, because the society is designed in a way that is almost impossible to live a perfect "zero-waste" lifestyle for us commoners, but I see that she is really trying very hard to do her best. Instead of criticizing and being an annoying nitpicker ("your suppose to replace your menstrual cup so that's not true zero-waste blablabla"), why can't people just appreciate her and recognize her for this hard choice of lifestyle?
Maybe her lifestyle is still far from being "perfectly zero-waste," but at least she lives by her values, in contrary to people who haven't even TRIED to live an eco life before open your mouth to criticize her. We need to encourage and support people like that, and also do our best to live by our values.
She is very beautiful and her message is too.
she is so glowing - i think I am in love - her smile, her compassionate easy tone, her priorities - I get her and I belong to it...
The stickers on fruit/vegetables are food grade. They can be eaten/composted.

so much love for this girl 💖 found this from Lavendaire! 💖 (can't believe I haven't watched this vid before 😓)
Hey can you please tell me the recipe for that dinner? It looked amazing
unrelated but Lauren and the interviewer look like a couple.
great ideas, good for her for showing us that we can all do our bit
Hey, interviewer, I got a catchier one.
“If it rots, do not toss”
i would feel so rude asking for them to put it in my cup lmao
I worked in food for years and my coworkers and I could not care less if someone brought their own container. An employee has to go grab a container, anyway, so being handed a container by the customer actually saves/time effort. It's not rude. It might be awkward for you, but you'll feel better about it the more you do it. :-)
Wasn't this exposed a while ago? I mean, that's entirely impossible to have this little waste, What if she accidentally broke her phone? That wouldn't fit in a mason jar. She's only regulating and choosing what she puts in the jar. The real waste she's producing is seven more times than what she's showing you and the truth is that after she advertised her company, it became more apparent she's not really into this reducing lifestyle, she's just trying to buy into it, the best example might be the condom packs she sells at 5 dollars for three in a tin. Which is very little product to splurge on. And I Which is essential the same to every other drugstore condom but with fancy packing. How about the containers that hold these Tins? The shipping? She outright claims this is ALL her trash but is that really the case?
Maybe there's more trash she is producing but I think this isn't the point of the video. The point is she's making a conscious effort to try as much as possible to produce less waste. Even if she is producing more than she claims she is, she's still inspiring others to at least try. The takeaway is not about whether she is actually producing so little waste, but about the conscious effort to save the planet as much as possible. We don't need one person going waste free perfectly. We need the entire human population to do it imperfectly.
She's only outsourcing her waste and reducing her daily trash. Water, electricity, clothes, tools she uses, are impossible to produce without waste. She buys them and acts like 'zero waste' is a valid thing. She didn't even talk about medicines or the condoms until it was brought up.

she's soo sweet n cute. i think what she's doing is teriffic 4 the environment! i try my best to recycle as much as possible but woah, i dnt think i can ever go as far n extreme like her. I give her so much credit tho, she must really care for earth. We need more people like her. She probably could be vegan to.
Zero waste is impossible.
Yes, she’s definitely lying lmao.
