PSA: A lot of people think recycling is the main climate fix, but it's way down the list.
I keep hearing folks at work talk about recycling like it's the biggest thing they can do. The EPA's waste hierarchy shows reducing what you buy comes first, then reusing, and recycling is third. What's one small thing you've done to cut down on buying new stuff?

Oh man, mending is great, but that's actually reusing, not reducing! For real reduction, I stopped buying bottled water completely. I just refill the same metal bottle every single day.
