ÇEVRESEL SORUNLARA KARŞI BİR ÇÖZÜM ÖNERİSİ OLARAK SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİR TÜKETİM DÜŞÜNCESİ

Abstract

Günümüzde sergilenen tüketim kalıplarının olası ekolojik etkilerinin altının çizildiği Brundtland Raporu’ndan beri, aşırı tüketim, sürdürülemez tüketim kalıpları, sürdürülebilir tüketim kavramı ve sürdürülebilir tüketim kalıplarını sergilemenin gerekliliği akademik ve politik alanda sıkça tartışılmaktadır. Ayrıca, gezegenimizi kurtarabilmek için var olan tüketim düzeyini düşürmenin ve tüketim davranışlarını daha sürdürülebilir bir biçime dönüştürmenin gerekliliğine değinilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, sürdürülebilir tüketim kavramı ayrıntılı olarak açıklanmaktadır. Çalışmada, ilk olarak literatürde yer alan pek çok sürdürülebilir tüketim tanımına yer verilmiş, daha sonra sürdürülebilir tüketimin kapsamı hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Son olarak da, sürdürülebilir tüketim düşüncesinin paydaşları ve sürdürülebilir tüketimin eksiklik ve zayıflıklarına değinilmiştir
