“Sobriety is a way of relating to the world around us. It takes the form of a commitment to an approach (i.e. a way of thinking) that :
- is voluntary ;
- involves rethinking and even transforming resource consumption by making coherent choices regarding quality (better) and quantity adjusted to needs ;
- makes consumption – and the pleasure it generates – a means, not an end ;
- is initiated with the aim of no longer harming the natural and social environment in order to live better.”
