Very well said! It appears like the other commenters deliberately try to misinterpret you. Consuming less is indeed one of the best things we can do.

Instead of buying new cheap clothes all the time to be trendy we should buy quality clothing and wear it for a long time. Repair it (and other things we buy) or sell it or give it away rather than dispose of.

Here in Europe things are moving in the right direction, but still too slowly, I am afraid.

I think people get tired of everyone bashing every initiative that doesn’t solve every problem that exists. If someone can plant trees with their grocery purchases instead of gaining points to purchase flights I think it’s a net win.
