Reuse, Reduce, Consume
November 16, 2020
As defined in the Oxford dictionary, sustainability is the avoidance of the depletion of natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance. Capitalism is an economic and political system in which a country’s trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state. And consumerism is the protection or promotion of the interests of consumers.
Seemingly disparate terms, the three are intertwined within both the financial system and the vast majority of society.
