There are actually a lot of health inequities in my region, as well as a lot of local pollution. Which I was kind of surprised about, but not entirely.

REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Buy Used ClothesDo people with economic privilege have a responsibility to consume and own less? How can the concept of "reduce" be presented to those who may be struggling to have enough food, clothes, shelter?
Alondra Saldivar 10/27/2020 12:34 PMThat's a tough question, I know personally I do find it hard to buy ethically and not fall into the cycle of buying cheap so I would say maybe sharing more accessible information about consumption and the effect of buying into fast fashion. -
