Not me.
Idea is to reduce to what is required for your own personal tastes and educate your children.
I saw recently on a show that a western child by the time it is 3yo will have produced enough waste and pollution equivelant to the entire life of an adult in other poorer countries. |
I think this is the point of the OP. At least for me.
I want to own and have things that I
need, for the most part.
And it's OK to have a few things that are
wants.
We all can reduce waste, unnecesarry accumulation of things we rarely, if ever, use.
