Worth a look I think - Martin
“Consumerism, it is clear, represents a mistaken idea of wealth, and it is based on a mistaken idea of freedom.”
Dear friends and colleagues,
We are pleased and excited to announce the launch of the latest initiative of the Simplicity Institute - The Simpler Way: A Practical Action Plan for Living More on Less.
The Simpler Way consists of a website and booklet which provide detailed practical advice on how to live a 'simpler life' of reduced and restrained consumption. More importantly, it invites readers to contribute their own thoughts, experiences, and practical tips, so that we can all share and expand upon our collective wisdom.
By now we all understand the importance of reducing resource and energy consumption and stepping more lightly on the planet. But figuring out exactly how to do this in a consumer society can be very challenging. The Simpler Way project is dedicated to providing the most comprehensive practice-based resource for facilitating this transition.
Please click on the link below and share your own insights with the growing simple living community around the world. Your contribution is vital.
