Life Style Changes for Environment and Sustainable Development

Climate change’s repercussions have made it more crucial than ever to have a discussion about growth restrictions and the need for sustainable resource management. Numerous academic fields, such as ethics, sociology, anthropology, psychology, and environmental economics, are criticising the techno-econocentric worldview for its restricted focus. It is obvious that a second technology revolution is required and that it must be widely adopted, but it is as important to emphasise the critical role that consumers play in facilitating and accelerating the transition to sustainability. Eco-centric discourse from sources as different as ecological footprint literature and eco-justice literature claims that rising conspicuous consumerism in the post-industrial era cannot be sustained. The neoclassical assumption that technology and natural resources may be completely interchangeable distorts analysis that is overly technocentric. Evidence reveals that not every human existence has benefited equally from the industrial revolution, even after two centuries. For those who are currently falling behind, future climate change will be the most severe. Despite being available, efficient technology cannot be used since there is not enough demand.
