Zero Waste as a Concept of Sustainable Consumption – A review
Original language description
21st century might be recognized as the era of many global changes followed by the overconsumption of the developed countries and the rapid development of emerging economies with their own desires to produce more, consume more within the framework of economic and population growth. However, the aforementioned facts have huge negative impacts on environment and put increased pressure on scarce global resources. These facts have sparked efforts to find new alternatives to deal with these problems with respect to economy and consumption as such. This review paper aims on the zero waste concept at households´ level as a concept of sustainable consumption similar to the circular economy concept regarding their basic principles: reduce, reuse, recycle. Zero waste lifestyle triggered the demand for package free shopping. The change of consumer behaviour towards the shift from single-use products to reusable products can be also recognized.
