Summary
Growth in human consumption is the transcending problem of our times, In short span of 50 years, high income societies have shifted from an area when a 'simple life' was the norm to one where material consumption was pervasive. Consumption has become the engine for post-industrial societies. The liveablility of cities in these societies is directly attributable to the consuption of resources - indirectly via their built environments and directly by their residents. this pattern of development is not sustainable. Nor is it equitable.
