Nowadays people live in the society where consumer goods are relatively cheaper to buy. Do you think its advantages outweigh its disadvantages?

It is true that

consumer

goods these days are cheaper than they used to be in the past. Though there are various advantages associated with

, the drawbacks of cheaper

goods still outweigh them. When

goods can be bought at cheap rates, their

increases. While

this

is good for the economy, it hurts the environment because more resources are required to produce more goods.

This

does not help the planet. Another downside of excessive

consumption

is that it leads to the production of more waste. Actually, garbage disposal is one of the biggest issues we face today. Landfills all over the world are already overflowing. Oftentimes perfectly usable products are thrown away because a slightly better and newer version of the same product has already hit the market and can be bought for the same price.

For example

This

trend is fuelled by the cheap prices and in my

For example

This

was the case with most electronic products ten or fifteen years ago and they had
