Our approach towards shopping is changing and a growing number of consumers want to shop ethically. Having become habituated to commercial retail, where chain stores offer their mass-produced goods at cheap rates, there is a greater need for a new attitude towards shopping that is ethical.
It is this idea of sustainable shopping that not just celebrates creativity but also genuineness and ethical production that takes the movement firmly in the right direction. In this endeavour for a most sustainable shopping experience, there are some very doable ideas. Try them.
1. Think
long-term value over instant gratification. Invest in purchases that save money
and the planet-in the long term.
2. Repair,
Reuse, Recycle. Or at least, give away what you don’t need to charity or your
helpers at home.
3. Shop for
grocery items from local farmers’ markets - the production and products are of
better quality.
4. Before
buying the latest trendy top accessory, think if it is really what you need and
if you will want it later too.
5. Support
local artisans and their business by opting for their products and spreading
the word in your friends circle.
