If you’re looking for ways to cut down on waste in your home, try these sustainable tips from TikTok’s environmentally minded creators.

1. Stop buying these things.

TikTok creator @sabrina.sustainable.life shares the things she won’t be buying in 2021. She’s swapping out her regular plastic toothpaste bottles for sustainable toothpaste tabs, plastic floss for a biodegradable kind, and mouthwash for mouthwash tabs that dissolve in water.

3. Thrift everything!
