There is no Pride on a Dead Planet. 🌎

Remember the The Rs of Circularity as you move through your Pride Celebrations! 🏳️‍🌈

Reuse any Pride memorabilia you’ve acquired in past years instead of getting new gear.

Reconsider Pride-related purchases from big brands and box stores and Shop Local from independent artists instead!

Research Pinkwashing (yes, it is similar to Greenwashing.)
