　　How much garbage do you imagine a person will produce in his lifetime? It's about 127，604 pounds of garbage.However，Lauren Singer，who majored in environmental science at New York University，began working toward living a “Zero Waste” lifestyle while still studying at university and has been completely “trashfree” for the past two years，proving that a trashfree lifestyle is possible.

　　Lauren regularly writes about her experiences of a zerowaste life on her blog.While she was determined to embrace a wastefree lifestyle，the ecoblogger admits that the past two years haven't been without difficulties.However，after persevering for so long，she now feels that she is completely “set up” with everything she needs to keep following a trashfree lifestyle.“I stopped buying packaged products and began bringing my own bags at the supermarket，” she explained，“I stopped buying new clothes and shopped for only secondhand things.As more and more time passes，I produce less and less.”

　　Even though the journey is hard，Lauren's zerowaste life is well worth the effort.She now saves a lot of money because she is prepared when going shopping rather than grab things blindly.She also eats fresh organic fruits and vegetables instead of packaged foods.

　　Today she has learned to make all of her own everyday ecofriendly products，such as toothpaste，shampoo，kitchen cleaner and the like in an attempt to avoid creating unnecessary rubbish.She also founded her own wastefree company，the Simply Co.，through which she sells her homemade products.
