Answer 1

An article on :-

Expanding consumerism has killed the earth "

We’re a gloomy lot, with many of us insisting that there’s nothing we can do personally about global warming, or that the human race is over-running the planet like a plague.

But according to leading ecologists speaking this week in Albuquerque at the annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America, few of us realise that the main cause of the current environmental crisis is human nature.

More specifically, all we’re doing is what all other creatures have ever done to survive, expanding into whatever territory is available and using up whatever resources are available, just like a bacterial culture growing in a Petri dish till all the nutrients are used up. What happens then, of course, is that the bugs then die in a sea of their own waste.

• Consumerism is a situation where the market is simply being driven by demand and supply.
• In this situation as the demand for a product increases, then the manufacturers have to increase the production to meet the supply, therefore, they cut more trees and use more plastic which is non-recyclable.
• Due to this the number of trees is reducing all over.
• This even leads to the depletion of resources.
• But all this is having harmful effects on earth.
• Global warming is increasing because of a decrease in the number of trees.

Hence, now we know the meaning and details of consumerism
