Don’t give people ‘things’ for Christmas! If

Don’t give people ‘things’ for Christmas! If you do, make sure they're things they actually want! I love this image from @mfarai 🎄⁠⠀⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠⠀⁠
When we buy someone a present we spend time on it in multiple ways - we go to work to earn money to buy it, shop for it, wrap it and give it. The person we give it to then spends time on it - using it, repairing it and eventually, figuring out how to dispose of it. This goes for DIY & eco gifts as well!⁠⠀⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠⠀⁠
This year why not do something different and give an experience or donate! Use givewell.org to find charities that produce the best outcomes for people per dollar. If you want to give things, buy second hand or make them yourself. Buy new only if you’re absolutely sure they want and need it and you can’t find it second hand!⁠⠀⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠⠀⁠
Be sure to check out my guide to reducing waste this Christmas in my bio for more tips! Now I'd love to know, what are you giving or asking for this Christmas?⁠⠀

✧Buy alcohol in cans over glass for more efficient recycling⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
✧Compost your scraps and plan your meals so you only cook what you need⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
✧ Give donations as a present and check on the 'Give Well' website for top-rated charities⁠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
✧Use a scarf as a wrapping paper or newspaper with string and twigs of rosemary⁠

These are just a few ideas from my blog post on reducing waste at Christmas time! Click the link in my bio to read to full post with tips on food, wrapping, decorations, gifts, and more!⁠

“How sustainable is your bank?⁠ .⁠ We've tea

“How sustainable is your bank?⁠
.⁠
We've teamed up with @sustainable.simply to give you some insights into how sustainable the big banks in Australia are⁠
.⁠
To dive a bit deeper we've been looking into what sort of projects each bank finance⁠
.⁠
Even though most of the big banks have not invested in coal for sometime, most banks still invest in other fossil fuels⁠
.⁠
The only banks we could find that don't invest in fossil fuesl are Bank Australia and ME bank. So if you’re thinking of switching these 2 are definitely worth considering⁠
.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
Disclaimer: This advice is general in nature, make sure to check these banks meet your other criteria (e.g. interest rates) before switching” - @bewealthsmart ✍️
