When the society has too much to offer, we tend to forget the difference between "need" & "want".
We need food to survive; we do not want food to be wasted. Let's order less!
We need to communicate with the modern society with the latest gadgets; we do not need to have new model every year. Let's reduce the electronic waste!
We need to wear clothes for protection. We still can have fashions, but we do not need to change with every season. Let's reduce your wardrobe.
We need to show love to kids for their birthday through presents. We do not want to have a full house of it. Instead of toys & gadgets, ask guests to bring books, stationeries, foods & beverages or be creative instead.
We want people to know.
We do not need disposable chopstick.
We do not need disposable plastic utensil.
We do not need plastic straw.
We do not need excessive wrapping.
We do not need that glass of water whenever we sit down in a restaurant.
...
Before buying or getting anything, asking yourself if this is something you need it for now; otherwise, wait until you really need it. Even you take it for granted, please take what you need only.
