The problem

Buy! Buy! Buy! We're in the midst of an overconsumption crisis, centred around constant buying, short-term use, and inevitable disposal. This cycle of "buy-use-toss" is swiftly depleting resources and burdening the environment, leading to approximately 12.3 million tonnes of such waste generated in the US alone every single day.
