How to Buy Sustainable
Buying sustainable goods means being picky about the things we buy. We may choose a mobile phone where all the parts can be replaced with more modern parts, be selective about the manufacturers we buy our laptops from, or buy only sustainably sourced clothes. If we are able to commit to these actions we can make a considerable dent in impact globally as brands that are making positive choices end up leading in the market which helps to push others to go further. Not only that, but we may reduce our environmental impact by getting goods that last a lot longer!
