Living a more sustainable lifestyle may not sound very attainable, especially for a book lover. Our book collections bring us joy. But maybe there is a way that we can be more sustainable when adding to our collections.
Today, I'm sitting down with my friend Tyler to chat about what sustainability may look like for a book lover. We also discuss overconsumption, how it may apply to the book industry, and potential ways to be more eco-conscious.
What we talked about:
What is sustainable living
What happens to the books that we send to thrift stores
Is overconsumption an issue in the book industry
Exploring alternative ways to own books
Remembering to shop in alignment with our values
