Do you have an easy tip to live more sustainably?
I feel a greater appreciation for the products I choose as well as for their makers. This applies equally to fashion, furniture and in many ways also to the things I eat. With regard to fashion and furniture, for example, the consequence for me is that I buy mostly from small brands or vintage. There are so many possibilities and so much to discover (also for different budgets).
What does conscious consumption look like in your daily life?
I try to challenge myself as a consumer and be aware where the things I buy come from. I ask myself, who made them and under which circumstances? Also: Where do I buy something? Do I really want and need this? And does it have to be new? For me, this has automatically led to less consumption.
