This episode originally aired on June 12, 2024. Becoming more conscious consumers is a pivotal step in building a more sustainable economy, but how do we deconsume in a consumerist world? When we buy less, we save money, cut down on clutter, and lower our emissions. This collective shift has another big impact — helping us to steer the economy away from disposable products, unsustainable resource use, and dangerous supply chains.On this episode of Second Nature, we hear listeners' take on overconsumption and their tips for deconsumption. We also chat with climate activist and educator Lauren Bash about Buy Nothing groups, Repair Cafes, and her own deconsumption journey.

Tips to Combat Overconsumption - Money Tip Tuesday

Today, overconsumption has grown pervasively in many of our lives. Or at least the temptation to overconsume. In this time of influencers, shopping hauls, and restocking videos, it's important to remember the effects that overconsumption can have on not only our lives but also the lives of others and, ultimately, the environment. If you're hoping to combat overconsumption habits in your own life, there are ways to recognize and bar yourself against the habit, leading to a more fulfilling and mindful lifestyle.   Links: Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Learn more about Triangle Credit Union  Transcript: Welcome to Money Tip Tuesday from the Making Money Personal podcast.   What is overconsumption? Overconsumption happens when we buy more stuff than we need. If you're perpetually on the internet like I am, you've probably seen restock videos, unboxing videos, shopping hauls, and influencer must-haves. These are items that influencers, who have a large following on social media, often promote as essential or trendy, leading their followers to believe they need these items too. More often than not, these videos showcase extraordinary purchases to show off their collections or entice you to buy the item presented. They're almost always aesthetically pleasing and show off in carefully crafted ways to get viewers to picture themselves owning or using the item.    But this is all part of the vast overconsumption environment we're in.    You may know what I'm talking about, as some signs in your home may point to this phenomenon. An overflowing closet, overstuffed drawers, and piles of things littering the hallway are all examples of what can happen when we overbuy. Recognizing these signs is the first step towards a more mindful and sustainable lifestyle.    Some common signs of overconsumption are buying clothes you'll only wear once, wasting food because of overbuying, upgrading your phone too often, and using too much energy at home.    We're fortunate to live in a time when almost anything we want can be delivered to our doors within a couple of days. The convenience of online selling and delivery apps has given us many wonderful opportunities to live and build the lives we want, but they also give us more reasons to shop and spend.    Not to mention the barrage of advertisements on social apps, streaming services, influencer videos, and targeted emails constantly reminding us of that nifty new gadget, skincare product, or clothing item. Plus, payment options like 'Buy Now, Pay Later' (BNPL) have entered the arena, allowing even more people to purchase items they would otherwise have had to wait for or passed on altogether.    To better identify the effect of overconsumption on society, it's essential to recognize its dangers.    From an Individual perspective, overconsumption can negatively affect our finances due to increased spending on things that we either never use or use once and then discard. Not to mention, if you're one to stockpile, a buildup of items can lead to a cluttered living space, inhibiting our ability to feel at peace or relaxed in our homes.    The dangers of overconsumption affect not only you but also your environment. Overbuying can lead to greater waste and an increase in items sent to landfills. More trash can lead to more pollution, which affects our environment.   What's the best method of avoiding overconsumption? First, be honest with yourself and recognize if you're doing it. Then, pay attention to the signs in and around your home and your spending transactions to check your consumption habits.    It's also good to start being more mindful about why you're buying something in the first place.    You can also try an underconsumption challenge. You may have seen people online touting their own underconsumption journeys also known as “underconsumption core”. These are lifestyle changes where they focus on not buying more things than they'll use or need. Some examples you may see range from people using all existing skincare products before buying anything new, learning how to mend their own clothes instead of tossing used and buying new ones, or trying to make dinner from whatever is available in the fridge rather than running to the store for more ingredients or ordering out. For instance, you could try a 'no-buy month' where you commit to not purchasing any non-essential items for a month. Or, you could challenge yourself to use up all the food in your pantry before buying more groceries. Some of these ideas work as lifestyle habits; others might be fun to try as challenges. Reflect on your situation and determine whether you would benefit from some underconsumption habits to live a more sustainable life.   If there are any other tips or topics you would like us to cover, let us know at tcupodcast@trianglecu.org.

When we think of those who have high blood sugar, we tend to think of people with diabetes, as they often have to monitor their levels and sometimes undergo insulin treatment. But actually everybody can have blood sugar spikes, and many of us do without even realising. These occur when a simple sugar called glucose builds up in the blood. This is known as hyperglycemia. High blood sugar can make your mouth dry, make you feel thirsty, give you blurred vision and make you need to pee often. Overconsumption, particularly of added sugar, can lead to a calorie surplus, and therefore result in weight gain. Being overweight can in turn lead to other health issues, like heart disease and other problems. Consuming too much sugar can also damage your teeth.  Do I need to be cutting sugar out of my diet completely then? What can I do about it then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Highlights of our conversation include: Why captive breeding programs for endangered species are both cruel and ineffective; How the mental health of both conservation professionals and animal rights activists is deeply impacted by the ongoing suffering of both wild animals and farmed animals; How ongoing ecological destruction is causing eco-anxiety and eco-distress in students and some of the more effective classroom approaches to address it; How environmental justice differs from ecological justice and why we need to address both if we hope to create a more just, regenerative future; How Sarah helps students become aware of the role that human overpopulation plays in humanity's ecological overshoot and helps make the classroom a comfortable place to discuss it.  See episode website for show notes, links, and transcript:  https://www.populationbalance.org/podcast/sarah-bexell   OVERSHOOT | Shrink Toward Abundance OVERSHOOT tackles today's interlocked social and ecological crises driven by humanity's excessive population and consumption.

With expert guests from wide-ranging disciplines, we examine the forces underlying overshoot: from patriarchal pronatalism that is fueling overpopulation, to growth-biased economic systems that lead to consumerism and social injustice, to the dominant worldview of human supremacy that subjugates animals and nature.

Conscious Chatter with Kestrel Jenkins

In Episode 325, Kestrel welcomes Emily Fenves, the founder of lander line - a platform she created in September 2021 - after feeling burnt out with her own consumption habits. As a regular shopper, Emily found herself spending an exhaustive amount of time browsing, buying, returning, and purging. She embarked on a journey to learn more about the “why” behind her overconsumption, and decided to help others do the same. “I think a lot of people assume that investment pieces mean luxury. For me, specifically, I always think about – can I pass this down to my daughter? Investment pieces can be secondhand, too. Whether I'm shopping new or secondhand, I'm always asking myself that question – is this something I can pass down to her?” -Emily JANUARY THEME — EXPLORING THE NUANCE AROUND *INVESTMENT PIECES*  This month, we're going all in on – investment pieces. What does that really mean? Well, that's one of the aspects we unpack. But if you google around and start diving into the discussion online, you'll find a lot of people talking about things like: LONGEVITY, JUSTIFYING HIGHER TICKET ITEMS, HIGHER QUALITY, HIGHER COSTS, and EVERGREEN STYLES. We touch on cost per wear, the idea of fewer better things, and recommendations when you're searching for investment pieces.  It's also personal – so remember to take that into account as you listen to this week's guest. What you deem an investment piece may not necessarily be what someone else identifies as an investment piece – and to me, that's some of the fun of it. Speaking of this week's guest – she self identifies as a former overconsumer-turned-fair-fashion-advocate who loves secondhand and influencing others to quit fast fashion.

Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast

Today, I'm going to tell you how to get thick and shiny hair naturally! Biotin is a B vitamin that many people take for thick, shiny hair. It can come from the diet, but it can also come from the gut microbiome. The good bacteria in your gut make biotin. This is why a common side effect of antibiotics is hair problems. When you stop taking biotin, you may notice that the problem comes right back, so it's vital to address gut health when dealing with biotin deficiency. Liver and egg yolks are the best sources of biotin. Nutritional yeast and salmon also contain biotin. Alcohol, raw eggs, and magnesium deficiency can interfere with biotin absorption. Zinc and copper are essential for biotin absorption and function. Retinol, the active form of vitamin A, is only found in animal foods. Liver and egg yolks are the best sources, but you can also find vitamin A in shellfish and cod liver oil. Vitamin A helps control sebum, so it's very beneficial for thick, shiny hair! For healthy hair, reduce your omega-6 fat intake and increase your omega-3s. Omega-3 fatty acids are vital for healthy hair. Fish oil and cod liver oil are excellent sources of omega-3s. L. reuteri is a microbe missing in 96% of the population. It increases sebum, which makes hair shiny, and it may also increase hair growth. Copper is used in many different enzymes, including the enzyme that helps prevent iron accumulation in your tissues. Iron is vital for hair growth, but we need the right balance. NPK fertilizer in our foods is a common cause of copper deficiency. If the grass is deficient in copper, the animals that eat the grass will also be deficient. Animals with copper deficiency have very dull hair. If this can happen to sheep and cows, it can definitely happen to us! Overconsumption of iron, often from fortified wheat products, can lock up your copper and contribute to copper deficiency. Other contributors to copper deficiency include high fructose corn syrup and high zinc intake. If you want healthy hair, add the following foods to your diet: •Fermented foods (i.e. kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi) •Liver •Egg yolks •Cod liver oil/cod liver •Organic foods •Trace minerals Soil, Grass and Cancer: https://www.amazon.com/Soil-Grass-Can...

Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy is a documentary that was released on Netflix a week before Black Friday. The movie reveals the shocking truth about how large corporations manipulate consumers to increase their profits at the peril of the consumer's wallet and the planet's health. In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses the recently released Netflix documentary, Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy. The episode focuses on the themes of consumerism, overconsumption, and their environmental impacts, especially in the context of the holiday shopping season. Major Points Discussed: Consumer Culture and Overconsumption: The documentary critiques how companies like Amazon, Adidas, and Apple use persuasive marketing techniques to encourage consumers to overspend. It raises questions about whether society has prioritized material possessions over experiences and relationships. Environmental Impacts: The film highlights the ecological damage caused by excessive consumption, including the disposal of unsold clothing, which contributes to environmental degradation in countries like Ghana. It discusses the issue of e-waste, revealing how discarded electronics are often shipped to developing countries, leading to health hazards for workers who dismantle them without proper protection. Textile Waste and Fast Fashion: The documentary examines the fast fashion industry, showcasing how companies produce millions of items annually, resulting in significant textile waste that pollutes ecosystems. It emphasizes the harmful effects of synthetic fabrics, which release microplastics into waterways. Carbon Footprint and Resource Depletion: The production and transportation of goods are linked to high fossil fuel consumption, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. The extraction of raw materials for consumer goods leads to deforestation and loss of biodiversity. Plastic Waste and Ocean Pollution: Excessive packaging, often made from non-recyclable plastics, exacerbates the plastic waste crisis, harming marine life and ecosystems. The episode stresses the urgent need for sustainable consumption practices to mitigate these issues. Consumer Responsibility vs. Systemic Solutions: While the documentary raises awareness about consumer manipulation, it also questions whether the onus of change should solely fall on consumers. Lewin argues for the need for systematic solutions and corporate accountability to address the root causes of overconsumption and environmental degradation. Personal Reflections: Lewin shares his own struggles with impulse buying and the societal pressures to consume, especially during the holiday season. He encourages listeners to think critically about their purchases and consider sustainable alternatives, such as thrift shopping. The episode concludes with a call to action for listeners to reflect on their consumption habits and engage in discussions about sustainability and environmental protection.
