Our commitment to Red Day is a collective pledge shared with our supporters, customers, co-advocates, partners, contributors, community members, stakeholders, and onlookers. As more than a single moment, but a continuous process of shaping, relearning, and evolving.
At its core, Red Day for Do Not Wish is community-oriented, and importantly underscores a dedicated day committed to sharing bits of our annual progress openly, and collectively. It’s a public and participatory moment to report our impact, invite dialogue, and reaffirm our commitment to building retail systems that are transformative for the planet. A shared moment in its making.
This progress reflects more than commerce; but the shaping of a subculture grounded in responsible and measurable consumption. From the outset, our commitment has centered on growth with impact; defined not solely by transactions or engagement metrics, but by demonstrable CO₂ outcomes on reductions, conserved resources, and the progressive building of a circular retail system.
From day zero, our commitment has been to grow with impact. Every number reflecting not just progression, but a step toward reshaping retail into a climate-aligned infrastructure.

Do Not Wish is committed to contributing to the global industrial decarbonization by setting clear emissions-reduction targets within our operational infrastructure, culture, and value chain. We aim to achieve measurable reductions in emissions intensity across our operation, and advance toward net zero alignment by 2030, and beyond.
Public Dialogue & Key Pillars
Our commitment beyond commerce is about embedding discounted retail into the current, and as part of the broader dialogue on climate and consumption. Since 2024, we have identified key pillars that will guide this dialogue:
Impact – measuring and reporting results transparently.
Partnerships – working with external stakeholders to expand circular solutions.
Innovation – evolving our technology and methodology for measurable climate impact.
Culture – shaping a subculture of responsible, community-driven consumption.
These pillars ensure that Do Not Wish remains accountable, collaborative, and positioned to drive systemic change.

An Open Invitation
Red Day 2025 is an open invitation to be part of a community that spans retail, culture, and climate impact with a vision primarily built on participation and partnerships.
We are extending formal partnership opportunities across:
Distribution Partners – brands, retailers, retail channels
Founding Community Contributors – designers, creatives, stylists, artists, media voices, models, and cultural contributors.
Our formal rollout will begin with an initial group of founding collaborators and community members, who will help shape Do Not Wish from the inside out. Invitations to this founding cohort will be announced.
To Our Customers
As the pillared center of this initiative, every transaction, share, mention, follow, or like contributes directly to reducing CO₂ emissions, conserving resources, and driving measurable impact. Your conscious shopping choices on Do Not Wish play an essential role in lowering emissions and advancing circular retail. Together, we are proving that consumption can be both responsible and climate-aligned.
Net Zero Commitment
Do Not Wish is committed to advancing a net zero, climate-aligned future. We are embedding carbon accountability across every layer of our operations – from marketplace transactions to logistics, partnerships, and general operational practices. Our long-term goal is to achieve carbon neutrality across our value chain and to contribute to broader industrial decarbonization efforts.
Red Day marks our annual public dialogue on circularity in retail, and this year, we extend the dialogue to you, our customers and community: How Would You Like To Shop?
