    Society has become increasingly materialistic
    People aspire to earn more money
    They want a bigger house or a better car
    We connect wealth and material possessions with happiness and success
    Brands like “Armani” or ”Mercedes” are status symbols

    Consumerism creates employment
    It helps to reduce poverty

    We live in a global economy
    We have a better quality of life

    Negatives of Consumerism
    Consumerist societies create more waste
    They use more natural resources
    They cause damage to the environment
    Consumerism creates a “throw-away” culture
    Advertisers tell us who we are and what we want
