Not sure anyone else here is a zero waster, but I've been thinking about how I could come as close as possible in the park. For the uninitiated, basically the goal is to reduce the amount of trash you produce as much as possible. Now clearly it IS possible if one decided to not eat anything in the park, but I try to balance ZW with experiences and frankly I am all about the Disney food experience haha, so I'm trying to do as much as I can while still getting the full Disney magic.
When I was at Epcot (extremely briefly) I tried to have someone refill my water bottle and they said they weren't allowed to take it behind the counter, so chances of getting people to put drinks and things in a reusable cup seem slim. I think the biggest places I can reduce are looking for restaurants with real plates, bringing my own tote for souvies, bringing my own straw/spork/napkin, refilling water bottle at the filtered stands.
Main questions: does anyone remember how often there are recycling bins? I feel like the parks are pretty A+ about this but my memory is foggy. Also, anyone have any clue what the policy is on cast members putting drinks into personal cups?
And if anyone here happens to be ZW and has attempted this or has brilliant ideas, I'd love to hear them!
