LESSON PROPER
1. CONSUMERISM AND WASTE PRODUCT
Consume r- A consumer is someone who consumes anything that is required by him.
Consumerism - Consumerism refers to the process of consuming anything available in the world.
Waste product -Waste product is the product which is thrown after a short-period of time usage.
What are the problems and causes of consumerism and waste product?
Todays perpetual growth causes the following problems;

Destructive in the long-run to the environment

A contributing factor to the poverty around the world and
Numerous other social and ecological problems

How to solve these problems?

Well, in my point of views if we do the following things, we will have a prosperous and bright
future;
Population
we need to control population growth. This is the very basic and important step to be taken into
consideration. Laws are to be passed for the prevention of population growth.
Consumption
once we control population growth, the consumption rate would fall down itself, beyond this,
still we have to control more the consumption rate by passing some laws.
Technology
we should stop at this stage some of the irrelevant and unimportant products, in order to stabilize
the environment. Why do we have to have weapons, different kinds and models of vehicles and
many more things like that?
