## Enunciado

The price of consumerism


Norman Myers



[...]Moreover, consumption is not an issue for rich countries alone. In developing and transition countries
there are well over one billion people with enough income to enjoy an affluent lifestyle. Their aggregate
spending in purchasing-power parity (as measured in local terms) already matches that of the United
States. Certain effects of their consumerism, such as pollutant emissions from cars, which cause urban
smog and global warming, are a salient concern both locally and worldwide. China alone, with 300
million new consumers and possibly twice as many within ten years, could soon exert an environmental
impact to rival that of the United States.
