Wool stands the test of time for rugs, and you can find so many vintage ones in good condition for decent prices. This plastic awareness also applies to curtains, clothing, couches, beds, (foam included), etc. Anything plastic based, and bioplastics available today (and on the horizon) are not free of toxins unfortunately. Most of the toxins we are exposed to are right in our own homes.
Waste-free reducing waste is an amazing goal. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by all the work that has to be done. But toxin-free is an even larger scope which, in effect, reduces waste.
Good luck to everyone out there!
