Packing Peanuts

When buying packing peanuts, go green by purchasing starch-based ones. They're biodegradable and require far less negative environmental impact to create then styrofoam.

When you receive packing peanuts, always try to save them for the future. At some point you'll need packaging materials so maintain a collection so you won't need to buy them later.

You can even leave a note to the recipient stating, "Please continue to re-use these peanuts!"
