The idea of progress basically consists in believing that the world could become better in terms of technology, liberty and quality of life . As the rhythm of progress seems to have accelerated these last few decades with an ever faster increase of major technological and scientific breakthroughs, the cult of novelty and progress is now being questioned. Indeed, a growing number of people voice their concern about the ethnical, social and environmental consequences of such development and about the excesses of today’s consumer society. I have chosen to focus on this latter issue. How can people change their consumption habits ? First, I will exhibit the way...

To conclude, the development of large shopping malls, advertisements and Internet contribute to
create a consumer society, where people are became materialist, eternally dissatisfied and act like

However, some

The progress can
then lead towards a sustainable consumption.
Diaby Fatoumata.
