]]> Comment on EU aims to end green and social washing, obliging companies in Europe to disclose their impact on people & planet by Michiel de Gooijer https://www.brightvibes.com/eu-aims-to-end-green-and-social-washing-obliging-companies-in-europe-to-disclose-their-impact-on-people-planet/#comment-10 Wed, 16 Nov 2022 12:45:21 +0000 https://www.brightvibes.com/?p=106590#comment-10 This is so important. Of course, we as citizens and consumers have to take conscious, better buying decisions. But it’s key that we have laws that make it illegal for brands to fool us by green and social washing. I hope the US, China and the ROW follows soon!

]]> Comment on Why we need a new perspective on consumerism by wigi https://www.brightvibes.com/new-perspective-on-consumerism/#comment-9 Mon, 14 Nov 2022 07:12:40 +0000 https://www.brightvibes.com/?p=106303#comment-9 I am from Kenya….please bring Fairphone* here and other technologies for a society that is still on the worrying curve to western style consumerism. The societies in Africa need more opportunity to develop cultures of resilience to the “obesities” of consumerist addictions.

Thank You

however we need pricing mechanisms that make such items actually affordable.

However, even when mine breaks down I can’t afford one. I usually get my grandchildren’s castoffs. The reason I need one is because I wear hearing aids and there are various things that can be done better if I have a more up-to-date Android system. Never mind.
