This

essay will discuss the main causes of

this

phenomenon and provide a possible solution to change

this

tendency.

Firstly

, advertisements from different social media sources encourage

people

to do shopping more frequently than is needed. The

second

reason is the mode, which contributes from followers to change their clothes not due to they have become old, but for the reason that the mode has been changing.

Furthermore

individuals

this

provides producing plenty of unneeded things every year, which,

finally

, pollutes the planet. The volume of

this

pollution is shown in the

next

example. During lockdowns, humans had to stay at home, so unneeded purchases were not done.

As a result

, the mode industry had reduced their production to 65%.

This

percentage clearly shows the aggregate number of unnecessary items, which are bought every year. So that, gaining popularity of shopping is becoming a problem which demands to be solved. It is well-known fact, that shopping is not a healthy activity. Due to

this

fact,

individuals

, and especially young

people

, must be encouraged to do sport or take the knowledge. In

this

stage, social media sources should be used widely. If intelligence and sport became popular,

people

would change their focus.

For instance

, situational comedy “The Big Bang Theory” had contributed popularization of physical science through the mass. Should be pointed out that, even if doing sport and receiving knowledge are time-consuming activities, a popularization process would increase interest to them among

individuals

. In conclusion, as a current tendency shows, the increasing popularity of shopping could have negative consequences for

people

development, like waste time and resources. Due to

this

,

individuals

, especially youth should be encouraged to lift the focus of their activities to more useful areas.
