How the Consumerism Trap Is Ruining Our Planet and Health | Documentary | Ecocreds

From the Barbie-inspired pink craze to the obsession with Stanley Cups, consumerism has turned even the simplest products into status symbols. But at what cost? This documentary-style video delves into the deeper issue of overconsumption, exploring how our addiction to buying drives waste, pollution, and environmental destruction. Every year, Americans spend an average of $18,000 on non-essential items, much of it ending up unused or in storage. Globally, we’re on track to reach 5.6 billion consumers by 2030, each with a growing desire to buy more. And while brands push “sustainable” options, only a fraction of these products live up to their claims. In fact, less than 9% of plastic is ever recycled, while the rest clogs landfills and oceans, polluting ecosystems and impacting human health. Brands talk about sustainable choices, but often shift the responsibility onto consumers without addressing their role in driving overconsumption. The reality? We’re consuming resources as if we had five planets instead of one. Join us to uncover the truth behind consumerism and learn how embracing minimalist and zero-waste practices can make a real impact. Discover practical ways to escape the cycle of buying, wasting, and polluting—steps that can help us move toward a truly sustainable future.
