Freegan.info
"Freegan" is a play on the word vegan. Freegans go farther than vegans by choosing to monetarily consume nothing so as to give no economic power to the capitalist-consumer machine.
Freegans see harm in all consumer goods while vegans only see harm in the products from animal sources or products tested on animals. Therefore, freegans choose to buy as little as possible of ANY good and instead live off the massive waste of modern capitalist society. In so doing, they avoid giving any labor or resources to a system based on destruction, suffering, and oppression, while at the same time playing a small role in reducing waste.
