Conscious Consumerism through Sustainability

The importance of having a sustainable lifestyle is raised with the global warming and depletion of the ozone layer which is adversely affecting human and animal lives. The culture of consumerism in the modern world is one of the major reasons to destroy our environment through increased landfills and greenhouse gas emissions.

Purchasing something or the other is a part of our day-to-day life. Have you ever thought about the impact of products you purchase? As I mentioned earlier about increased landfills and greenhouse gas emissions, how much a product you are purchasing will contribute to all these? For example, you are purchasing a particular beauty product and it has micro beads that will end up in the ocean disturbing the ecosystem there. You can decide on avoiding purchasing such products and switching to more eco-friendly products. This is called conscious consumerism where we are making purchase decisions based on a product’s social, economic and environmental impacts. It’s a vast topic to discuss further. In nutshell it’s good to have an ethical shopping practice so that we can meet our needs, responsibly utilizing the natural resources keeping in mind our future generations.

Shopping locally is a sustainable way of shopping as it reduces the miles a product travels through to reach your local store as opposed to imported products. Local products reduce fuel consumption and carbon footprint.
