Advocates a cultural trend toward "low-consumption, high-fulfillment" lifestyles, also known as "voluntary simplicity."
  • Apoplectic Press: Subversive political and anti-Christmas greeting cards, free graphic images and GIF animations, original protest music and resources for activists and other misfits.
  • Being a Ghost - Doing Very Little - Helps the Environment: So concerned about over-consumption, David has become a ghost (recognised, but having little effect), living on under US$900 per year while buying everything and sharing housing. It's a real-life economics experiment.
  • Buy Nothing Christmas: National initiative started by Canadian Mennonites to de-commercialize Christmas and re-design a Christian lifestyle that is richer in meaning, smaller in impact upon the earth, and greater in giving to people less-privileged.
  • Center for a New American Dream: National non-profit organization challenging the "more is better" definition of the American dream.
  • Consumer Citizenship: European effort, based out of Hedmark University College in Norway, to get consumers to actively participate in developing and improving society by considering ethical issues, diversity of perspectives, global processes and future conditions on a global as well as regional, national and local scale when securing one's own personal needs and well-being.
  • Consumers Anonymous: Promote innovative alternatives to consumerism, for people seeking better ways to live with the Earth.
  • How Can We Change Consumerism?: Aims to convince people of the case for Anticonsumerism, where people need not feel they must constantly buy new items and use up the world's resources.
  • Mall-aise: Offbeat look at shopping centers in America.
  • Never Enough: Offers a critical look at overconsumption in the first world, which it asserts helps create poverty elsewhere and environmental damage.
  • Overconsumption: A Scientific View: Is there really any evidence that the world could be on the edge of an environmental breakdown due to the overconsumption and misuse of resources?
  • StopSUVs.org: Attacks SUV high fuel consumption, parodies SUV ads, and attacks the war in Iraq and really about oil.
  • Trade and Environment Database: Inventory for cases of trade and environment. From these cases, TED is also a point of context for research and discussion of trade and environment topics. Papers, virtual conferences.
  • What Is Anticonsumerism?: Puts anticonsumerism in the context of "green consumerism" and "ethical consumerism".
