This presentation skims the surface of what our environment and planet is subjected to as a result of modern consumerism.
An honorable mention, Rachel Botsman, who inspired us to take the leap of faith.
Also, the rise of Sharing Economy and various examples of Collaborative Consumption in India. India is joining the revolution and a small startup in Bangalore, India, Duffl, looks to contribute in its own way.
The sharing economy is a set of practices and models that, through technology and community, allows individuals and companies to share access to products, services and experiences.
