What do you think about the buy nothing trend?

At this moment I think that the trend of not buying anything is good because
people realize that it is not necessary to buy many things, instead it is very
important to help the conservation of the environment and the people who live in
inequality. But giving up buying unnecessary things will not work right away.
In my opinion that this should be done gradually. For example, train yourself not to
waste money. But there is a time when there is something that you really wanted
and could not afford. If you buy one thing, no one will suffer from this, but if you
always make such purchases, not only your wallet but the environment will suffer.
For example, to give away appliances that have broken down for repairs and not
buy new ones. It was a good idea in the text to help each other fix things or
exchange them.
You can also skip expensive purchases for a month or two. Sometimes even
inexpensive items are as good as expensive ones. It is very difficult not to buy
things when you are bombarded with ads that you see on Instagram or Twitter. Or
when you see a thing your favorite celebrity advertises, it's very difficult to hold
back. But we must fight this disease, which called "waste of money" as soon as
possible, because it will help us not only save money, but also save the
environment.
