Buy Nothing New Month begins

Buy Nothing New Month is a global movement that encourages collective, conscientious consumption which involves thinking about where consumer goods come from and where they go when disposed. This month promotes sustainable shopping practices, both in store and online, by encouraging the recycling of clothing and goods. This is achieved by sharing items amongst family and friends, and only shopping at second hand stores. Buy Nothing New Month operates within the statement ‘reduce, reuse and recycle’, promoting a more circular or donut economy.
