Ashlee Piper, author of Give a Sh*t: Do Good. Live Better. Save the Planet understands how overwhelming mindful shopping can be, especially when there’s so much information out there. Her advice? Do your research and take your time.
“I think of sustainability as more of a ‘choose your own adventure,’ rather than a hard-and-fast set of rules,” she says. “Not everything works for everyone, so you need to decide your priorities. Do you care about fabrication? Worker treatment? Manufacturing processes? All of these? Once you define your priorities, you can make more aligned, sustainable decisions that fit your life. Personally, I always look for items that are cruelty-free and vegan, are fair trade whenever possible, prioritize worker treatment and ownership options, and embrace innovative, low-impact manufacturing, like low-waste patterns and carbon-neutral factories.”
