Brits want a sustainable economy
London, England - Britons are disenchanted with consumerism, preferring to donate their money to charity and recycle unwanted items than gorge themselves on unnecessary retail therapy, according to Women's Environmental Network (WEN).
Figures released by the British Retail Consortium this week showed that January sales did little to boost retail trade after "the worst Christmas in a decade", but by contrast, charity donations, as well as sales and events where people can swap unwanted gifts and other items, have seen a big increase.
