Buy Nothing Day Confronts the Economic Meltdown

BUY NOTHING DAY 2008
Friday, November 28 (North America)
Saturday, November 29 (International)

From our friends at Adbusters:

As we run out of money, resources and wilderness, and the planet keeps heating up, maybe it’s time to confront the root cause of our global crisis: overconsumption by the most affluent one billion people of the world. On November 28 why not confront your own consumption by going on a consumer fast for 24 hours? Like the millions of people who have done this fast before you, you may be rewarded with a life-changing epiphany. If you’re already an experienced Buy Nothing Day celebrant, check out the action pyramid at http://adbusters.org/bnd and take the BND message to the streets.
