Do you use a disposable razor?According to Ideal Bite, 2 billion disposable razors end up in US landfills every year.

You can find razors with replaceable blades at the grocery store or pharmacy, or check out Recycline’s Preserve Recyclable Razors. They’re made from 100% recycled plastic (65% from reclaimed Stoneyfield Farms yogurt cups).
