On the Mend

A world of fast fashion results in a world of fast waste.

You can help stop that trend toward environmental decline by making the simple decision to mend, rather than throw away, clothes that have holes, rips, or tears.

Better yet, you don’t have to limit this to clothes.

Furniture, kitchen gadgets, sports equipment, home decor - the list goes on for all the things at home or at work that can be mended rather than tossed out.

(You can learn more about this idea from this post from Austin Kleon, who was inspired by Amy Meissner.)

Action Step:

Take a look around your closet or garage. Find one thing to fix or mend by the end of the month.
