“There is massive propaganda for everyone to consume. Consumption is good for profits and consumption is good for the political establishment.” ~Noam Chomsky
Here are some basic ways in which we can create a shift from being a consumption-driven global society to becoming an environmentally friendly and ecologically-sustainable one:
1. A major shift in the consciousness of global society is needed! We must move from our overriding social focus on needless over-consumption and the accumulation of material wealth – to a new enlightened quest for spiritual wealth, happiness, and fulfillment. Once this new consciousness has been established, consumption levels should be kept within reasonable limits of sustainability, relative to achieving a synergistic balance with the natural resources of the Global Biosphere.
