City to Ocean’s Post

Viewing tip: BUY NOW on Netflix. Parallel to the organization of our conference about waste management and reduction, a new documentary was launched: Buy Now! This documentary explains how all the marketing tools we encounter in our lives, such as websites, ads, and social media, are designed in a manipulative way to make you buy more and more at an ever-increasing pace. Even more at moments like Christmas. The large companies behind these enormous sales do so without considering the environment. Enormous amounts of resources are wasted, pollution ends up in nature and our oceans, carbon emissions worsen climate change, and people in developing countries live amidst discarded goods. It's a documentary to watch before buying Christmas presents. Beware: only buy what you really need, and only buy items that are reusable and repairable.
