The Four Importand R's To Environmental Shopping

Shopping is an eco hazard; especially shopaholics with a thirst for purchasing new products constantly without a thought to what goes into making the product for one, or how it ends up in landfills once the product can not be used any longer.

The Best Approach to Shopping

The best way to shop is by maintaining the four R approach. 

What are the four R's?

1) React

Reacting to what you need to purchase or what you want to purchase. Treating yourself occasionally to wants is fine, as long as it is not a habit. Reaction is reaction to what you are about to purchase, the reasons why, how long it lasts and where it will end up.

2) Reduce

Reducing your consumption to needs vs wants. Wants should be limited vs needs.  

3) Recycle

 Finding products through a service like Freecycle, garage sales, second hand stores,or even second hand ads is the option for recycling. 

4) Reuse

Reuse the product or item as often as you can, and make it last as long as possible. I even used ripped clothing for either eco crafting or using for cloths around the house.

 May God bless you to shop ecologically and to consider the hazards to our environment when you do.
