No overconsumption

Over-consumption is at the root of the planet’s #environmental crisis. Consumption of fast fashion, flights, Black Friday-discounted gadgets – has become the primary driver of ecological crisis. We are devouring the planet’s resources at a rate 1.8 (2023) times faster than it can regenerate. When people buy less stuff, you get immediate drops in emissions, resource consumption and #pollution. That doesn’t just mean fewer physical things; it’s also less electricity, travel and eating out. 💥

The rate we produce and consume in modern society is faster than ever. We use up what we can sustainably spend for the year after only about 7 months. There are 52 fashion seasons with new collections every week. Clothes and tech is outdated so fast that even if you want to consume slowly, products break after a short period either way. If we don’t stop this wasteful practice of crappy quality and disposable everything, we’re going to end up depleting and poisoning all of our recourses.

a graffittied phrase that can be read both ways inspired Vivienne Westwood's anti consumerism.

Today is National "I am In Control Day" and it's a great opportunity to take a moment and remind yourself of the things we are in control over, the things we do NOT have control over AND the importance of letting what we have NO control over GO! Remember take charge of the things you can control one by one and let the rest of that stuff go! 🥰

Sometimes, people mess up so badly that they end up on the internet when it looks like brain.exe stopped working for them.

We don't need a handful of people doing zero waste perfectly. We need mmillions of people doing it imperfectly' Anne-Marie Bonneau. Sustainability within a small business blog post. Being environmentally friendly and conscious of this within my small business is important to me and this quote is a perfect description of how we should be approaching zero waste. Everyone doing what they can and contantly seeking to imrpove.
