#10. Freegan
A combination of the words "free" and "vegan," the term describes an
anti-consumer who shuns mainstream materialism and only makes purchases as a
last resort. The most sensational and often discussed practice of freeganism
involves Dumpster-diving for food, clothing or other essentials, which
freegans refer to as "waste reclamation." Many freegans are vegans and thus
refrain from eating any animal products, but there are some "meagans" who
consume meat that would otherwise remain unused.
