🌍 Consumism has a significant impact on the environment, leading to increased extraction of natural resources and generation of waste and pollution.
💰 For the past 30 years, the consumption of natural resources has increased by around 50%, and only 7% of plastic bags in the European Union are recycled.
🌳 One of the major consequences of irresponsible consumption is deforestation, as large quantities of raw materials are needed to produce more products and build new constructions.
🌲 Deforestation is caused by various reasons, including clearing natural areas for intensive agriculture and livestock farming due to high global demand.
💧 Industrial waste, garbage in rivers and seas, oil spills, and other harmful substances are causing a loss in quantity and quality of water.
