There are many things in life that are wants and needs, but there is a big difference between the two. A want is something that you want, like travelling and entertainment. Needs are things that are necessary for living, like food, water, clothes and shelter. Needs are what your body needs to function properly. Wants are things that your body doesn't need to function.

That's very true. A lot of people will only think of what they want and need, not what the planet needs. They might wnat to go on vacation every few months, but they don't think about how the planet needs to be treated properly. Needs are things like water and food, and preferably shelter, and it is horrible because some people can have all of their needs and all of their wants, where as some less fortunate people can't even meet all of their own needs. I think a lof of people need to think of the bigger picture, and not just what will make them happy for the next week. There's plenty of things that you can do in place of the things that they want that will impact the environment less in a negative way.

I totally agree with you there is a big gap between wanting and earning. nd also need are something very important and alot of people think that if they do somthing good for the world everyone will start doing the same but that is not how it works.

@KenH I totally agree with you! Wants and needs are definitely different. On terms of supporting our environment, we often only focus on what we want and disregard what impact it might have on the environment. For example, we spend a lot on clothing, and we don’t tend to think about its impact. Today the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of our global emissions. A recent survey revealed that many women agree that an article of clothing worn 1-2 times can be considered “old”. We really need to take a step back and consider the consequences of our actions. When we buy so much clothing, we waste a large range of resources and cause numerous negative impacts on our environment. As a society we have to be aware of our choices and should think about our wants vs our needs.

What you say is true, since today many families and many people can afford to travel, spend their whims and look out for themselves, but this is true that for a small part there is greater pollution and we do not see many times for what the planet needs just because we feel like it and the "for once nothing happens" really does happen.

And personally they could see improvements on the planet and less pollution from airplanes if, for example, flights of less than 45 minutes were eliminated or if we made airplanes that do not pollute as much.
At the same time, pollution from cars, motorcycles, and motorcycles could be reduced if we did not go to a place that is a 5-minute walk away, so taking the motorcycle instead of walking, and if we all make a small change in the end it could be improved the pollution of the planet
