We live in a world where movie merch is no longer just funko pops and Lego sets… the wicked team has like 50+ collaborations, including DISHWASHER PODS. Like I’m sorry for being cynical but what does it say that we can’t enjoy any art without attaching needless consumption to it

Celebrating fall doesn’t have to include shopping for decor or new outfits. We were built to embrace seasonal change by going outside and feeling the breeze. By watching the birds migrate. By harvesting the squash planted over the summer. By going to bed earlier with the sun.

38% of all food goes unsold or uneaten. That’s almost 149 BILLION meals per year. But a lot of that is preventable if we address food waste. Plus, most of the time, reducing food waste ends up saving us money and time. A planet with less food waste is ideal for all of us!

Anyway, while Apple announces some new phone and new unhelpful AI tech, we’re running a Better Tech challenge on Commons. We’ll reward you for buying refurbished technology instead or repairing what you have at local tech repair shops. Don’t let them convince you that they’re our only path forward.

Big tech is prioritizing building new data centers over their existing emissions reductions targets. They’re prioritizing data centers over consumer energy costs. Over community access to safe fresh water.

Here’s your reminder that patriarchy 100% influences the climate. When women are made to feel insecure about every single feature they have, we turn to buying solutions. Skims is a company with billions of dollars of success built off of this model.

Yes shopping releases dopamine but you actually don’t have to buy anything to get the dopamine. You can make a dopamine Pinterest board or wishlist. Or rent or borrow something for the dopamine hit. Or make something!

part of reconnecting with the natural world is to learn to live slowly. The inclination to have everything we want instantly, no matter when we want it is not something that harmonizes with our ecosystems. We have to be mindful of nature’s pace.
