How to be sustainable on Black Friday ? 4 tips on getting deals without supporting overconsumption

@storyofstuff nailed it with this post about #BlackFriday - every single thing you buy has a carbon footprint from before it is bought and will have an impact well after you are done with it. #BuyLess to reduce your impact. Don't buy things just because they are "a good deal" - you save 100% on things you don't buy. 😘 Many very smart people are using huge amounts of research, psychology and money to convince you to buy more. You can see past this. You don't need what they are telling you that you need. ❤️ Go forth and #BuyNothing - or if you really need stuff, look for small, local, BIPOC, woman-owned, and ethical businesses to support wherever you can. https://www.instagram.com/p/CWs7DmytIN9/?utm_medium=tumblr

Veggies,fruits, beans, whole grains, nuts, granola etc.⁣ ✔️ Is my plant milk from a more sustainable crop like oat milk?⁣ ✔️ If it is packaged, can I reuse the package? Or is compostable?
