Global Unpackage Day 2008: Over-buying

This year I am concentrating on packaging that leads to over-buying. We all do it - purchase more than what we need before we need it. Then it sits around unused for years before being tossed into the land fill sometimes unused. A lot of it has to do with the way items are packaged.

In the video below I went to a local Staples in Manhattan to see what they were doing.

Ask about over packaging at your local store and how they can reduce it.
