Acting Sustainably to Build a GREEN ECONOMY – using resources for your food, shelter, mobility and other consumption that are easily renewable and as closely produced to your local community as possible. Also, work at building your community to maximize what you can do together with other people on limited funds by creating: resource sharing, cooperative purchases, labor and skill networks, community tool sheds or swapping, and jointly lobbying merchants and legislators. For those items that just aren't grown in your community, like coffee or sugar, always look for Fair Trade producers. Get in the practice of tracking just how many of your dollars are helping to Build a Green Economy???....and set a goal to do better each month.
