Beeswax wrap session

-
Tonight we held a DIY Beeswax session lead by Daniel Cousins, Sustainability Wizard. We learned how to make sustainable wraps that can be used to replace plastic wrap. I was amazed at how easy it was, and how well the beeswax wraps turned out. We went home with five beeswax wraps each and the knowledge and skills to make these ourselves. We OMAK Daniel for an amazing session!






Happy Ocean plans to hold another DIY beeswax wrap session in the near future, stay tuned for details.

Do you ever notice the pile of trash that is left over when you're done with your take-out meal? Our "throw-away" lifestyle has created tons of waste from single-use products that we use for just a few minutes. The environmental impacts on the planet from all the single-use items are enormous. For example: the average useful life of a "to-go" paper coffee cup, with the lid, the sleeve, the stir stick, and even the tray to hold it is 12 minutes! American consumers use 130 billion paper cups each year for coffee. That disposable coffee-cup habit uses 27 billion gallons of water, consumes 25 million trees, and generates 31 billion pounds of CO2.
