Mindful Consumption
Mindful consumption is a core part of sustainable living, when we consume with intention, careful consideration and without impulsive purchase, it brings positive impact to individual and the environment. Ways to practice mindful consumption in our daily activities:
Know what you buy and buy what you need
Making conscious decision of our daily consumption on food, necessities and items we use.
Select the options that best fit our needs and purpose.
Avoid impulsive and unnecessary purchase that becomes clutter.
Prioritise ethics and longevity over convenience
Choose reusable over single-use products.
Create habits of carrying shopping bags, reusable containers and water bottles to reduce plastic consumptions.
Choose quality products that would last longer, and use them with care for longevity.
Plan ahead and consume thoughtfully
Check and use up the items already available at home before making purchase.
Plan the quantity without over-purchasing, especially fresh food and items with expiry dates that could lead to excessive waste.
