Writing Feedback / "BUY NOTHING DAY" -- More often that once each year. [5]
Buy Nothing Day is observed around the world each November. In honor of the holiday, you will take an entire day off from purchasing anything. The purpose of this holiday is to make people aware of how much they consume (and waste) on a daily basis. We, especially those of us who live in wealthy areas of North America, Europe, and Australia, are constantly buying, consuming, and throwing away. This not only wastes money, it also wastes natural resources.
The day after Buy Nothing Day, write about how you feel. Was it difficult for you to abstain from buying for a day? Easy? Has it changed the way you feel about consumerism and consumption? Write a few paragraphs about how your outlook might change if we all celebrated Buy Nothing Day every month or every week instead of once a year
