Oklahoma City offers a wealth of resources for getting "
stuff" locally - some of it free or at very reasonable costs. One way to be more sustainable and resilient is to avoid buying new "stuff" (preventing the energy, oil, natural resources, water waste, and ecosystem destruction that come along with growing, harvesting, mining, and producing it).
The resources listed here will help you to buy consignment or thrift stuff, to borrow or rent, and when needed, to buy locally made, green, stuff.
