Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

1. Plastic water bottles since they have no deposit and most end up in land fills
2. over sized packaging with a ton of heavy plastic to keep it from being opened. Ex: An Printer ink cartridge in a box that is 5 times the size of the cartridge.
3. ziploc bags are made of plastic but takes years to decompose, why not use resealable container instead and wash them out.
4. Styrofoam cups since they also take years to decompose, heavy paper will do the same job.
5. When a single person buys a car that fits a large family and never has anyone else in the car and the car is a gas hog. 100% 1 Vote
