Description

Michael Talks with J.B. MacKinnon all about his new book, The Day The World Stops Shopping. They discuss what the world looks like when we slow our spending and drastically reduce our consumption - including how our products change and how we ourselves change. J.B. talks about conspicuous versus inconspicuous consumption, voluntary simplicity, and how the economy fairs in a lower-consuming world. They touch on why taking the long view matters in business, and J.B. gives advice on how you can start consuming less. In Over My Head WebsiteThe Day The World Stops Shopping Book

Michael is on a quest to get his environmental footprint as low as humanly possible. So he built his own off-grid Tiny House. But downsizing and minimizing weren’t enough. He had to take more drastic measures, altering his lifestyle in some extreme ways, all in the name of saving the planet. But when it comes to his goal, he still feels in over his head. He doesn’t know if all the downsizing, minimizing, reducing, reusing, recycling, and sacrificing make a difference. It’s time to bring in the experts. Join Michael as he sits down with scientists, policymakers, industry leaders, and environmental experts to figure out how to effectively reduce his footprint in all aspects of life. From food and fast fashion to cars and caskets, he gets into what the worst culprits really are and how we can all make more informed choices when it comes to the impact we have on the planet.
