Green Christian coined the nemonic LOAF ( locally , organise, animal friendly, fairly traded) to help us make better choices when buying food. I was wondering if we need a similar nemonic for other purchasing choices.
For example SURE –
Sustainably produced;
Useful (ie something we need rather than a gimmick);
the Rs – can it be repaired, reused, and can it (finally) be recycled; and
Ethically produced by people earning the real living wage, where taxes are paid and exploitative advertising avoided.
Make SURE before you buy!
