The ability for all to buy affordable, durable, ethically sourced, and resource efficient items according to their needs. To this end, the people of today should commit to buying items that will last them decades, not months, and put in the research required to know who the manufacturer is and whether they follow ethical practices that facilitate this goal. It is within our power to buy better, to buy more ethically, and to choose where our money will go as it leaves our hands: to corporations which choose short term profit at the cost of environmental devastation, or businesses which help us #unleashvalues, and who contribute to a brighter, better future for all of us.

How to define a corporation is eco-friendly is really hard.
Hello Adam! I agree, products should actually last, and it is our choice whether we choose it or not.
Hi Adam great post! i agree that individuals should be more mindful in their purchasing!
This is a great idea! It's something so simple that we can do yet it has such great potential to become something more :)
I agree with you that the power is in our hands as the future leaders of this planet. We need to be the change we want to see.
Hi Adam, I totally agree on how your wrote that is its within our power to make these changes. No one else is doing it for us!
Hello Adam, I thought your post was super insightful!! One thing I would like to purpose to you is that i think being able to buy durable and ethically sourced products for cheap is still a working progress. With that being said, do you think it would be appropriate for us to make sacrifices and fork out a little bit more money for the stuff that is offered to us now that fulfills this criteria?
Hi Adam! How do we think we can put pressure on manufacturers to reduce planned obsolescence? Any specific actions?
