A few years ago I made an effort to eat locally, I made an effort to shop locally, I made an effort to avoid the big box stores. Now I simply eat locally, shop locally, and largely avoid the big box stores. Those choices are no longer conscious choices. They are simply the outcomes of my form of life. I live in an urban neighborhood closer to small shops than big box stores. I have made very little investment in a good car so I avoid driving as much as possible. I find it easier to buy groceries from local farmers than not because I am a member of a local food club and help operate a small urban farm. This is the key to action: to make it unconscious; to change the material conditions so that what one wants is what simply happens.
