Are you fed up of buying endless paper towels? If so, then this is the answer for you, these will act just like paper towels, but look pretty, and are totally re-usable, meaning you only have to purchase the materials once.

One of my favorite sustainable swaps I have made this year is using biodegradable/compostable cellulose sponges for washing dishes. These are eco-friendly and will break down when you are done with them. Typical kitchen sponges are made using plastics, such as polyester or polyurethane. These are non-recycleable and don't biodegrade, so imagine if everyone made the change to bio sponges! Super exciting.
So the ones I got are by bioGO and they are 12 for $16, which does seem expensive, but I am averaging a one-month life span per sponge, some lasting longer, with constant use and for me that is very doable. Other sponges are cheaper, but they seem to last only a couple of weeks for me. So the choice is clear.
I ask you to consider making this swap and trying it out to reduce your environmental impact. Less plastics in landfill are always a good thing. As always, any suggestion I make for sustainable swaps is dependent on your ability to make it. I encourage it, but I understand that this is not always an option for everyone. I also encourage people to look into other ways they can reduce their einvironmental impact in other ways. We really are beyond a crossroads and climate change is not going to stop, we have to adapt, mitigate and just do what we can. And another way to do that is to look into a plant-based diet, among other things.
