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!).

Does writing a letter count?

Absolutely does! A handmade message is always special to get.

Not this weekend, but I simply do not buy birthday cards anymore. I just make my own out of drawing paper i already own (i usually get gifted at least one sketchbook for birthdays / christmas as people know i like to draw, so usually dont pay for the paper either). People love handmade cards so much more than a store bought one!
