➡️Build a community - Take a step back from our consumeristic lifestyle and, instead, become part of a sharing community where you swap, thrift, and barter for greener consumption.
➡️Reduce your carbon footprint - The less new consumption or new buying we partake in, the less damage we do to the environment. Take a stand by rejecting our consumerist capitalist culture by choosing to barter for the things you want.
@AnneVelenturf@LabYorkshire Agreed. And also, it's reduce, reuse and then recycle. Has to be read in that sequence. Gotta do the first two, whatever then is left goes to the third bucket. But...
When seen through this lens, everything changes. We see that life is finite. The fact that it won’t last doesn’t make it less special. It makes it even more special.
We can also question our consumption behaviour: What life do we give in return for those new things we buy
