Conscious consumption means making conscious decisions and weighing up the options and alternatives that are important to you in your personal sustainable lifestyle.
Tip: Reduce consumption: We're often overwhelmed and no longer value activities or products because they're actually too much or overlap. So, take the time to question one thing or another for yourself and, for example, create a personal elimination list. This isn't about going without and then depriving yourself of or even missing something important, but rather about conscious action.
Tip: What do I really need? Simply asking yourself this question will lead to more conscious consumption and save you money along the way. So instead of a daily coffee to go, look for other alternatives or reduce the intervals between them.
Tip: How was it produced? Favor ethical (social conditions) and sustainable production. Fairtrade labels for food, clothing, etc., or even giving smaller labels a chance—like foodigence—can sometimes help .airtrade-Labeln im Bereich Lebensmittel, Kleidung etc. oder auch kleineren Labels eine Chance zu geben – wie foodigence
