Consumerism


This essay will describe the possible results of an increase in consumerism. There are certain good and bad points, namely tourism and things.

Firstly, now, many countries have some train companies, many airplane companies and many people have a car, so we can go to anywhere by train airplane and car easily. In other words, you can do sightseeing rural area at low price. If rural area held some events, many people come to there and tourists will buy some souvenir, therefore consumerism is useful for economic development projects in the area. However, those means of transportation still have a problem. They emit exhaust fumes. Therefore they are messing up environmental problem.

Secondly, if you have little money, you can get almost things. For example, at 100 yen shops, you can buy almost things for just 100 yen. However, some things of 100yen shops are low quality. They are easily breakable. Therefore some people may buy once again. That is waste of resources. As a result, low quality things may be a cause of environmental destruction.

In my opinion, balance is important in consumerism. If we can have zero-emission vehicles, and have good quality things at all shops, we will be able to live comfortably.

    I think that offer no advantages other than cheap on Chinese goods.
