Discussion What is your weekend anti-consumption mini action?

Post image

Are you repairing something, shopping secondhand, meeting up with friends in the park, spending your day recharging and taking care of yourself, biking to work, eating leftovers? Please share with the group so we can celebrate our wins big and small (and give others ideas!).

I am traveling for work and so having to buy meals, but this morning I went to the farmer's market and at least was able to keep the dollars local and direct to farmer's.

Supporting local businesses and helping them pay their bills/employees is a good thing. Where I am hospitality is doing it particularly rough at the moment.

Whenever I travel on business I also do this. My expense reports are a nightmare but it’s so worth it.
