I had a good discussion with my Environmental Sustainability group around the book Less by Patrick Grant of The Great British Sewing Bee fame. I read the book first, came prepared with some highlights and interesting facts and others chipped with thoughts and examples of items that have lasted years, things that fell apart quickly, where we can get clothing repairs locally, repairing techniques and overcoming mental barriers to shopping secondhand. The book is well worth a read and the theme of buying less, buying better and buying local seemed to chime.
