…personal finance
- Bank with a local credit union, or consult bank.green to see if your bank lends to the fossil fuel industry.
- Use Fossil Free Funds to do the same for your investment portfolio.
It's probably best to keep money out of stocks since investing in them may amplify profit-seeking behavior among corporations.
…shopping
When you can, get things second-hand. Start with local options that don't require shipping:
- Facebook Marketplace (account required)
- Craigslist
- Freecycle (account required)
- thrift and surplus stores
If you're concerned about scams, read Craigslist's advice for avoiding them here.
When local markets fail, you can search eBay with the "Used" filter.
…transportation
- walk
- cycle and save with Bicycle Benefits
- ride public transit
- when someone's driving, carpool
