ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Collaborative consumption

Collaborative consumption is when people share, rent, or borrow things. It's like when you borrow your friends toy or when your neighbor lets you use their lawn mower. People can save money by not having to buy something they will only use once or twice, and it also avoids extra waste. It is way more friendly to the planet to share, borrow, or rent what you need instead of buying it.
