Consumers Role in Regenerative Economics
As more and more companies move towards sustainable
practices and a model of regenerative economics, it is important for us as consumers
to support them. Our economy is based on
the foundation of supply and demand. If
the population buying products demands that said products are created using
regenerative methods, then companies will face no other option than to expand
their practices, or in some cases completely change them. On the other side, if companies make a conscious
effort to convert to sustainable practices and aren’t met with sufficient
support from customers buying their products then they may become wary of
continuing these practices.
It is
not enough to be vocal about the need for sustainability, consumers must speak
with their actions as well. Research which
companies you associate with and purchase from.
Research their stances on sustainability and whether or not it is one of
their top priorities. Find new companies
to purchase from and support. In the context
of economics, sustainability is a two way street; companies must convert to
appease customers, and customers must support these products to appease the
companies.

strides in sustainability and how they work not only with customers, but also
each other, please follow this link:
