Explanation:
Society has been developing from the use of scarce natural resources, a fact that can be understood from the first industrial revolution, which directly impacted people's lives, the way of consumption, work, their habits, etc.
The use of scarce resources was then boosted by strong global industrialization, globalization and consumerism. Organizations use environmental resources such as energy sources, wood, water, soil and many others for use in their production process, which can generate serious impacts on the environment, since this constant and unmonitored process can cause air and air pollution. rivers, weakening of the soil, deforestation of forests and various irreversible consequences for nature and for the quality of life of current and future generations.
On the other hand, rampant consumerism can actively contribute to the increase in production and use of scarce resources by organizations, in addition to the increase in the production of waste arising from the disposal of non-degradable products and packaging, which causes pollution and destruction of ecosystems, as has already been observed. in the oceans due to the disposal of plastics.
Society also needs to become aware of the use of scarce resources from the feeding of animal resources, since cattle breeding contributes to deforestation for the formation of pastures, increases the greenhouse effect and uses a large amount of water for the production of meat. .
However, there is a tendency in society to change habits, to raise awareness about the damage caused by exaggerated consumerism, ideally, there should be more and more information available on the importance of environmental preservation and the use of sustainability as a guiding parameter for a better life. balanced and healthy.
