    Do some research on polystyrene and polyvinyl. How many items in your house already contain these toxins?

    Less plastic in landfills although I'd like to see better quality in the bristles.

    Currently most of the packaging for toothpaste is plastic. How can you advocate for more alternatives through your purchasing power and influence in community?

    What have you noticed about the economic and social impact of switching to steel razors? Was there ever really a need for disposable razors, or do you think it was just a way to sell more things?
