Zero Waste Products That Are A Waste Of Money

Today, let’s talk about so-called zero waste swaps and products that are, well… a complete waste of money.

Because here’s the thing: not every so-called zero waste product is worth your hard-earned cash—or even as sustainable as it claims to be. In fact, some of these items are downright wasteful, not only in terms of money but also resources, time, and effort.
