Can’t stop zipping those little bags? Start your New Year off right, and pledge "No More Baggies". Some people are addicted to these things, and aren't afraid to admit it.

One blogger writes: I'm positively addicted to ziploc bags. Sometimes I have big ziploc bags filled with lots of little ziploc bags filled with related things…You never know when you might need one or ten." Another says, "And if you aren't addicted to Ziploc Bags yet, be warned. You will be eventually."

It's easy to get used to convenience, but there are greener solutions that are just as easy. To get started, go cold turkey. Simply stop purchasing the bags. Instead, store items such as food in reusable containers. The lids close tight to keep food fresh, and can keep you even more organized than baggies ever did.

Rebecca says: There is life after little plastic bags…addicts will survive. I should know: I used to be one of them. My new addiction? Pyrex containers. It’s a step in the right direction!
