LanguageENG
AuthorMoharana, Khirod Chandra
Summary / Abstract (Note)Climate change is the most crucial challenge to realizing the goals of sustainable development. Out of the many dimensions of climate change, the contemporary culture of consumption is very significant. Unless we examine the drivers of this culture, sustainability will be a distant dream. If we see the global consumption pattern we find that the developed countries have the greatest share in consuming the world resources and energy. As a result the developed nations have taken the lead in accelerating the shift towards sustainable production and consumption. However the rest of the world needs to follow strict measures to discourage consumerism for global climate protection.
