In the previous article, we learned about the current state of sustainable consumption. In this article, Nanoen will provide readers with information about “Causes of unsustainable consumption” and “How to consume sustainably”.
The production and consumption process has a direct impact on all elements in the environment from land, water, air, organisms and humans. There are many causes of unsustainable consumption and the list of causes cannot be completely listed in a short article. However, the causes that Nanoen will mention below are the most important and common factors:
-
Prefer foreign goods:
According to the survey results of the High Quality Vietnamese Goods (HVNCLC) of the HVNCLC Business Association in 2017, consumers mainly use domestic goods, but the rate of liking imported products tends to increase. And statistics show that the rate of liking Thai, Japanese, American, European goods, etc. is much higher. Transporting goods from one place to another means emitting a large amount of greenhouse gases. The longer the distance, the higher the cost, energy and emissions during transportation and storage.
-
Consumption of fast food, poor nutritional food:
Consumers, especially children, are always attracted by the eye-catching and convenient as well as the variety of choices of these products. However, these are products with very little nutrition, instead they are added sugar, fat and synthetic sugar. And are potential health risks.
-
Food waste and loss:
Every year, 1/3 of the world's food production is thrown away. The decomposition of food creates a lot of methane. The large amount of food dumped in landfills contributes significantly to global warming.
To solve the problem of unsustainable consumption, there needs to be a change in the way we consume and manage resources. Creating sustainable consumption models, encouraging responsible production and consumption, investing in research and development of green technology, along with raising public education and awareness are important steps to build a sustainable future.
