Being "zero waste" means that we adopt steps towards reducing personal waste and minimizing our environmental impact.

Our community places a major focus on the 5 R's: refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. We practice this by reducing consumption, choosing reusable goods, recycling, composting, and helping each other improve.

We also recognize excess CO₂, other GHG emissions, and general resource usage as waste.

Collecting laces from worn shoes help personalised new ones without buying new laces. But at one point they will be more laces than need. What else can you do with shoe laces ?

I have found the quality has gone the other way. I never remember having to replace a shoelace, now I typically replace them twice in a year.
