But you advocate throwing things away a lot. I think people - especially people trying to minimalize - would be better served by donating their things to an organization like Goodwill. Not only are you reducing the amount of trash you put into our landfills, but you're also gaining a tax right off and ensuring that your stuff is used by someone who needs to use it more than you.
