People have been going small for 75 years, that method isn't working.
Small as for this not buying , not that other methods need to be pasued , of course what's going big already should continue whiles this is added too. Of course its just one day, but I and a lot of people practice this everyday trying to buy as less as possible and reaching self-sufficiency.
Yeah I feel like it hasn't really grown as much as it needs to, what do you think we should do to motivate more people?
People won't do anything until it impacts them, or they perceive it impacts them, hence the sudden interest in protest now that Biden is out of office. Once a Democrat gets back in the WH, regardless that material conditions still suck, they will go back to brunch and ignore the things they claim to hold dear right now.
That doesn't sounds like an actionable thing we can do?
