What is the Sharing Economy? How can it help us live more affordable, more sustainable, and ultimately more fulfilling lives? What would happen if for one year a family pledged to share as much as they possibly can?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of owning more and more stuff, what is it like to stop owning things and borrow, lend, rent, and swap instead? These are big questions, but features writer Eleanor Tucker sets out to answer them in this thoroughly absorbing and entertaining guide to sustainable sharing, or as it is also known, collaborative consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this engrossing study, Eleanor straps us into her year-long experiment along with her somewhat reluctant family. Over the course of the year, with the aid of various sharing apps, they will pledge to buy as few new things as possible, instead relying on the power of sharing, lending, renting, and borrowing to supply their needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach chapter introduces a different type of sharing into her day-to-day life, from the little things (food, clothes) to the bigger things (cars, furniture, the space around us) and shows how the growth of tech has revolutionised an age-old practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book contains best-for recommendations based around different types of sharing, to create an easily accessible shortcut into sharing. Written with warm and relatable humour as well as deeply-researched knowledge of the history of sharing, this unmissable guide could truly change the way you consume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47598977777900,"sku":"9780711282186","price":32.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/c4f9eebe0a65d7c37b5dd30c2918f80f.jpg?v=1778037726","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/thanks-for-sharing-by-eleanor-tucker-9780711282186","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
