Three Christmasy Chances To Make The World Just A Tiny Bit Better
MMmm that's some good Christmas content. As the Christmas e-shopping spree starts arriving on your doorstep, you're going to start feeling a little consumer guilt. God, such a consumer. Cramming the world full of stuff, just jamming stuff into every available landfill. Anyway, here're three places around town doing something to assuage your complicity in ruining the planet. * Shanghai Tattoo is hosting a Christmas Charity Party with food and drink sales going towards EGRC (Educating Girls of Rural China). Your gluttony and alcoholism could actually improve someone's life. Free to get in. Afterparty's at Inferno because of course it is. Upcycle plastic bags, kuaidi bags and bubble wrap and turn them into cute Christmas decorations that'll literally last a thousand years. Kids and adults welcome, they'll provide materials and machines to make as many as you can in two hours. The more you make, the better person you are. 150rmb to get in. Dig out your clothes (in good, wearable condition, Ebenezer) and swing by The Rooster anytime after 3.30pm to donate your clothes to The Renewal Center. A free pint of Vedett to reward you for parting with your mountain of stuff.
