Getting rid of something? Want to unconsume instead of just consume? You've come to the right place.
The Unconsumption Wiki aims to be your one-stop-shop for information about the best, most practical, most responsible, maybe even the most satisfying way to get rid of stuff you don't want anymore.
Whether you're trying to figure out how to dispose of an old, nonfunctioning cell phone, or you wish you could find a new home for that perfectly good T-shirt or book you just don't want anymore, this wiki aims to be the place you come for the answer.
That means it's also the place where you might just provide the answer. We've rounded up a bunch of resources here, but we are sure there are even more — stuff you know about that we don't. So join in and share what you know! Others will appreciate, and we will all benefit from, your participation, so: request access now!
[This wiki is a project of the volunteers at Unconsumption.tumblr.com, your daily source of inspiration for mindful consumption and creative reuse.]
