Rebecca Rockefeller Bücher

Klamotten, Kosmetik, Elektronik: Wir kaufen ständig neu und schmeißen vieles anschließend wieder weg. Was davon bleibt: Müllberge, die unseren Planeten zerstören, und das ungute Gefühl, den Blick für das Wesentliche zu verlieren. Liesl Clark und Rebecca Rockefeller, die Gründerinnen der globalen »Buy Nothing«-Bewegung, liefern mit diesem Buch eine fundierte Analyse unseres Kaufverhaltens und führen in sieben Schritten zu einer nachhaltigen Konsumkultur, die auf dem Prinzip des Schenkens und Tauschens beruht. So schonen wir Ressourcen, kommen unseren Mitmenschen näher und haben wieder Raum für die wirklich wichtigen Dinge im Leben.

A new theory of the affective, aesthetic, and formal dynamics of the "graphic" in American literature and culture.

Inspired by the ancient practice of gift economies, where neighbors share and pool resources, The Buy Nothing, Get Everything Plan introduces an environmentally conscious 7-step guide that teaches us how to buy less, give more, and live generously.

A powerful, environmentally-conscious guide to decluttering, saving money and growing a community inspired by the ancient practice of gift economies where neighbors pooled resources includes seven steps to learning how to buy less and give more. In 2013, Clark and Rockefeller discovered that the beaches of their community in Puget Sound were spoiled by a daily influx of plastic items and trash washing on shore. They launched the first Buy Nothing Project group, and developed an environmentally conscious program to buy less, give more, and live generously. They share their program to help you declutter your home without filling landfills, shop more thoughtfully and discerningly, and let go of the need to buy new things. -- Adapted from publisher description
