perché si può.
quote:
one
Reduce debt. If you can't pay cash, don't buy it.
Practice being mindful about what you buy and why.
two
Do it yourself. Grow food, pick berries, can and
preserve food, make wine, bake bread. Make or repair
clothes, furniture, and gifts. Create your own
entertainment. Walk, bike, run, or play basketball
instead of joining a fitness club.
three
Share & Exchange. Take care of neighbor kids and
elders. Play music, sing, act in local theater, write
poems, hold art shows. Exchange haircuts for
applesauce, bike repair for massage, language tutoring
for babysitting.
four
Reduce waste & pollution. Weatherize your home or
apartment. Reduce your car usage, or get rid of a
car.
five
Buy local. Run buy-local campaigns, print stickers,
publish or post a directory of local businesses.
Acknowledge business owners who foster the well-being
of the environment, employees, and the whole
community. Convert public funds from luring outside
corporations to supporting local businesses.
six
Start a new local business. Start a food market, credit
union, wifi network, or even an electricity co-op.
Explore ownership options like cooperatives,
nonprofits, for-profits, or single proprietorships.
seven
Buy Fair Traded when you buy imports. Vote with your
dollar for a better world for all.
