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?
I believe we want more than we need, and therefore we purchase more and increase our carbon foot print. I think that many of us do not realize our impacts of our purchases because we are not aware of our carbon footprint. It is not as much of an impact as transportation and home CO2 emissions, but no matter what they impact to our overall carbon footprint. However we don’t always need to buy what we need but it’s about thinking what is suitable for us and the environment together.
