The Day the World Stops Shopping: How ending consumerism gives us a better life and a greener world

This book is an excellent read. Somewhat dry (as you might expect) but the author does a great job of keeping up the pace, inserting humour, and remaining interesting throughout. As for the subject matter - it really is eye-opening; anyone who goes shopping for anything - clothes, tools, houseware - should read this book and take it to heart. If we do it, we might actually save the world.

This turned out to be a different book than I expected going in. Having said that I very much enjoyed it. I will certainly reread it in a few years time. The author references changes that have/are occurring as a result of the pandemic and questions if they will be lasting.
