Wants or Needs?

Is having the latest technology a want or a need?

How often do you get a new cel phone or mp3 player? Did you really need a new model? Do you consider the environmental impact of these purchases? If you are addicted, how can you break your addiction?

Wants or Needs - Consuming

Hello2u

For me, I am guilty of buying so many things that I don’t even use. Looking in my closet, there are so many clothes I don’t wear! For lowering CO2 emissions, we need to focus on not buying things because we simply want them, rather because there are necessary. Consumption has a massive effect on CO2 emission because almost every product links back to a mass producing factory. For me, I am constantly trying to reuse and recicle to keep my emissions low. Along with that, buying locally is also a good thing. And instead of throwing away all my unused clothes, I am donating them to thrift stores and children’s homes so they can be reused.
