The main concerns related to responsible consumption are:

Political and sociological

Technological, medical, and social

Economic, social, and environmental

The current economic model of consumption implies:

A careful management of non-renewable resources

A large reuse of materials and goods

A huge waste of resources, both renewable and non-renewable

One of the most important challenges regarding the future for advancing to a more responsible way of consumption is:

To increase the consumption of renewable resources since they are always available

To modify people's attitudes, making them aware of the risks of unconscious consumption

To punish people who waste resources

One of these indicators is not related to environmental concerns of responsible consumption:

Human and labour rights respect

Water footprint

Carbon footprint

To become a more responsible consumer of resources, you must:

Buy small presentations of products to avoid having leftovers

Drink mineral bottled water, as it is healthier

Reject single-use and disposable products

O atual modelo económico de consumo implica:

Um enorme desperdício de recursos, tanto renováveis como não renováveis

Uma grande reutilização de materiais e bens

Uma gestão cuidadosa dos recursos não renováveis
