A fenntarthatóbb fogyasztói magatartás és megnyilvánulási formái = A more sustainable consuming behaviour and its different manifestations

Abstract

Nowadays, the principle of sustainability has moved into more and more spheres of our life (eg.: food safety, marketing, environment – economy, education). The basis of this sustainability is the fact that we need to create a lifestyle, which does not endanger the life of either ours, or the next generation’s with not able to live in a free, welfare society, balanced with Nature. The three pillars of sustainability (economical, environmental, social) is much influenced by our consuming habits. This consuming is the result of our own opinions and values, which we choose from the different principled products and services with. The aim of current presentation is to represent those researches and consuming patterns that are in connection with it. I also would like to arrange them in a hierarchy, and define the phenomenon of sustainable consumption. Our consumption is worth examining in the field of food and the environmental influence.
