Who are THE NEW JONESES?

The New Joneses is a little house with a big message.

As a Buy Nothing New Month challenger, you are THE NEW JONESES.

You know the phrase ‘keeping up with the joneses’?

It’s a stupid, outdated consumer treadmill of ‘keeping up’ with the neighbours.

Like when the new iphone comes out.

And you feel the need to upgrade your perfectly good, existing iPhone…

Everything we do has an impact, so THE NEW JONESES show some easy everyday habits we can all make that are good for our people and planet.

Our choice of bank, our energy company, the dunny paper we buy. It all has an impact. The New Joneses show how to lighten our impact and make it positive.

Go to thenewjoneses.com to see what they’re up to.

“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” – Jane Goodall

Meet your new neighbours, The New Joneses

Have you heard of The New Joneses?

In their undies and bathrobes they came to Melbourne to show us how to make second hand second nature.

Two architecturally designed, sustainably built apartments were craned onto FedSquare, and The New Joneses came to live for a week.

In the spirit of ‘new consumption’ (which is conscientious and collaborative) The New Joneses were challenged to source everything they’d need (clothes, beds, linen, kitchenware, entertainment equipment etc) second hand.
