November 29th is Buy Nothing
November 29th is Buy Nothing Day, the day after Black Friday, which is one of the biggest shopping events of the year. The origins of this day date back to the 1990s, created by Canadian artist and activist Ted Dave as a form of protest against excessive consumerism and the consumerist culture that intensifies during the holiday shopping season. The date is an invitation to reflect on the impact of shopping on society and the environment, in addition to encouraging people to reconsider their consumption habits. The idea is that, by not buying anything on this day, people can take a step back and evaluate the need for their purchases, promoting more conscious and sustainable consumption. Over the years, Buy Nothing Day has gained popularity in several countries.
