These days many people throw away damaged items rather than repairing them. Why has this change occurred? What are the effects of this change in attitude?

Many people prefer to buy new products

instead

of making them repaired when the previous

ones

are broken. The origins of

this

situation seem to stem from two factors,

while

several effects appear to be open to us. Possibly the major factor is the effects of capitalism. By ,

this

we mean that in the current world, people tend to do more shopping and buy new devices

although

they don’t need to.

For instance

, when a smartphone was damaged, the owner would get a brand-new phone

instead

of making the current one fixed.

This

is caused by the popularity of having state-of-the-art

items

worldwide. A

further

well-known cause is high expenses of repairment. In comparison with old times, fixing

items

cost much more money, resulting in getting updated

ones

by adding a little money on repair expenses. The effects of

this

problem on people can be quite serious.

Firstly

,

this

unnecessary spending on new products would cause environmental problems. It is generally accepted that the population of the world is constantly growing and we should not waste anything to protect nature. If we threw away damaged

owning

and demanded recent

ones

, they would have to use new materials to produce

items

and decrease the reserve of raw materials in nature, leading to more damage to the environment. Another widely-observed impact is increased profit of companies. That’s why companies promote their products with various kinds of advertisements, resulting in a tendency to prefer purchasing recent

items

rather than keep using old

ones

.

For example

, television watchers might see a commercial about brand-new television and decide to own that as soon as theirs is damaged.

This

demonstrates the positive impact of the statement on producers. In conclusion, capitalism, expensive repair services, and the current world’s hecticness seem to be the main roots and they affect negatively the environment,

whereas

the economy of brands is affected in a positive way.
