[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be fair I think a lot of us would be onboard of not buying new things if they were of the same quality as old money. If clothes used to last a generation, now lose form after first wash.[/quote] Maybe that’s true of clothes, but this trend of ripping out perfectly hood kitchens and bathrooms and replacing perfectly good cars has absolutely nothing to do with quality or longevity.[/quote] True. In an article about people not buying as many Teslas because they dislike Elon Musk, a Tesla driver said he bought the cars to be sustainable. He then went on to say he’d bought THREE cars in ten years and that he was shopping for another new car and it would not be a Tesla. How about buying ONE car in ten years instead? These type of folks think buying more is fine and “sustainable” if they buy numerous “green” products. [/quote]
