J. Gordon Lippencott, a pioneer in product design and branding, said in 1947, "Our willingness to part with something before it is completely worn out is a phenomenon noticeable in no other society in history... It is soundly based on our economy of abundance. It must be further nurtured even though it runs contrary to one of the oldest inbred laws of humanity, the law of thrift."
It's no coincidence that the notion of saving up to buy something (and earning interest in the process) started losing ground in his era, supplanted by the then-new phenomenon of credit cards and borrowing to buy (and paying interest in the process). ~Edward Humes in Garbology
Love this so much!
Take a lunch + make it low, low waste.
Reused for livable housing.
"Being normal makes everything else 'abnormal'."
Because organic foods are good for our bodies, the farmer's bodies, and the planet... packaging isn't... and you can help!
Hope there's nothing but the sun in your eyes this weekend!
Love,
Jane
