Ten new ways I hope to vote with my money this year
- Switch to a local credit union or a regional bank.
- Purchase extra cloth grocery bags to put in my car for unplanned supermarket stops.
- Use TerraPass to offset the carbon emissions from the flights I’ll be making.
- Start using biodegradable garbage bags.
- Bring my Better World Shopping Guide along…everywhere.
- Buy meat, and maybe even raw milk, from local farmers.
- Give more time and financial resources to my church and other non-profit organizations.
- Make a loan to an entrepreneur in a developing country through Kiva.
- Put a little bit into a socially responsible investment fund.
- Spend less on “stuff” and be content with “enough!”

And, an 11th: read Everyday Justice by Julie Clawson (bought from an indie bookstore, of course) which explains fair trade and just shopping in areas from clothing to chocolate, coffee to banking, fuel and more. A fabulously helpful guide to understand this whole area. Thanks!
