Following on from yesterday, another approach would be to buy less. We probably think we have more stuff than we need so rather than buying something new, maybe question whether you actually need it or whether you have something already that would do. I recently needed some flip flops to walk along the path to the outdoor swimming pool – it’s about 50m of cold concrete – and then it occurred to me to use the old pair of sandals whose soles are wearing out.
Equally we are often tempted by advertising to buy things we don’t need.
