Consuming Better.Nearly two-thirds of respondents across six markets (66%) say that “as a society, we need to consume a lot less to improve the environment for future generations,” and 65% say they feel “a sense of responsibility to purchase products that are good for the environment and society.”•New Demands and Opportunities in Emerging Markets. Consumers in developing markets (Brazil, China, India) are more than twice as likely as their counterparts in developed markets (Germany, United Kingdom, United States) to report that they purchase products because of environmental and social benefits (51% to 22%), are willing to pay more for sustainable products (60% to 26%) and encourage others to buy from companies that are socially and environmentally responsible (70% to 34%).•Perceptions of Price, Performance and Credibility Critical to Driving Sustainable Consumption. A majority of consumers globally agree or strongly agree that they would “purchase more products that are environmentally and socially responsible” if they “performed as well as, or better than, products they usually buy” (75%), “it didn’t cost more” (70%), and “companies’ health and environmental claims were more believable” (64%).•Sharing Responsibility for a Shared Future. Three in four respondents globally say that government (76%), businesses (74%) and consumers (74%) should be very or extremely responsible for “working to improve the environment and society for future generations,” with two-thirds of respondents globally (65%) saying they personally “feel a sense of responsibility to society.”•Requiring Action: Top Issues for Companies to Address Include Water, Health, Fairness and Jobs.

The body's first line of defence against shifts in pH is its acid-base buffer systems.
What is acid-base buffer system?
- The proper balance between the acids and bases in the body's extracellular fluid is crucial for the normal physiology of the body and for cellular metabolism.
- The first lines of defence are immediate, consisting of the various chemical buffers which minimize pH changes that would otherwise occur in their absence.
- The pH of the intracellular fluid and the extracellular fluid need to be maintained at a constant level.
- Proteins are denatured i.e. their 3D structure is disrupted, causing enzymes and ion channels to malfunction.
- An acid–base imbalance is known as acidaemia when the pH is acidic and alkalaemia when the pH is alkaline.
