Is Black Friday Unsustainable?
Black Friday has become an annual shopping frenzy that raises concerns about it’s sustainability. The surge in demand for discounted products often leads to overconsumption which in turn is damaging to the environment and harmful to manufacturing workers.
However budgets are also tight and sales can be ways to stretch your dollar. Amidst the unsustainable practices associated with Black Friday, a more conscious and environmentally friendly approach is also there – supporting small, sustainable businesses. You can use BFCM sales as a way to support brands who prioritize ethical production, sustainably sourced materials, and giving back. Additionally, these businesses are often more embedded in their communities, and your support helps foster a resilient local economy.
Although one thing to always keep in mind when shopping during Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales is that sales are designed to tap into our psychology and give us a temporary dopamine boost. It’s important to recognize the allure of sales and shop intentionally. A helpful tool is to create a list and remember that it’s not actually a good deal if you don’t need it.
