Join Ian DeBay on "The Good System," as he explores practical tips for sustainable shopping in our current system. Discover three key steps to align your purchases with eco-friendly practices: 1) Repair items instead of replacing them to minimize waste. 2) Buy second-hand or refurbished products for a sustainable choice. 3) Opt for new, yet sustainably made items when necessary, despite the challenges.
Ian highlights the difficulties posed by consumerism and the capitalist system, providing insights on making repairs affordable, enhancing transparency in product sustainability, and addressing obstacles in purchasing truly eco-friendly goods.
Envision a future where sustainable shopping is effortless in "The Good System," where repair services are accessible, second-hand options abound, and sustainable products are the norm.
Remember, individual efforts help, but systemic change is crucial. Support political movements advocating for environmental reform. For more insights and discussions on system change, subscribe to the podcast, follow Ian's blog, and connect on social media.
