Consumption of the world’s resources (such as oil, fresh water, etc.) is increasing at a dangerous r World’s resources are consumed faster and faster which may cause a more serious issue nowadays. In my opinion, there is a variety of reasons result in this increased consumption and people should take more proactive actions to reduce it. There is a range of reasons can be seen in many countries. First, with an increasing world’s population and the rising of average household incomes, people tend to buy more products than they do in the past. These trends make people consume more scarce resources, such as oil and the natural ingredients. Second, in the present, global citizens, especially millennials, are looking for something characteristic to represent their personalities. This causes producers to make more varieties of products to meet consumers’ needs and consume more resources. Finally, people prefer traveling abroad these days because of the maturity of tourism industries, and this also results in more consumption taken by airplane companies. According to the reasons I mentioned above, people need to take more steps to reduce the consumption of scarce resources. From the government’s perspective, they could set more policies to deal with this issue, for example, they can announce a plastic-free policy to ban stores from providing any plastic products. Furthermore, people have to change their habits of consumption. For example, people should try to recycle disposed items more correctly and turn to buy more stable products which can be used for many years. By doing so, people can reduce the time we buying new items. In conclusion, there are many reasons cause the world’s resources to disappear at a faster and more dangerous rate. However, people have to change their habits to reduce their consumption and the government should be encouraged to take more severe policies to protect our natural resources.
