This is a very good thing. Thank you EU for forcing us dirty heathens in NA to have consumer protections.
Once again, the EU drags the rest of us into modernity kicking and screaming.
I hate the term consumer the only I consume is food . How about buyer or customer just anything but consumer
You consume and discard many things throughout your life. The fact that you consume so much should make you uncomfortable. I agree with using customer instead of consumer, but only because I want to get away from the idea that your only purpose in life is to consume things. I hate that being a "consumer" is normalized. Consumptive culture is both terrible for the environment and for the health of society.
It is terrible for the environment but it's the only way to make it work the system we crested: if you don't consume other people whose jobs consist in providing you with stuff or services don't get paid, next cycle they won't have the money to request whatever you sell or do, the system enters a downward spiral for lack of demand. Our system only works like that. There is no escape.
Tough. It is appropriate description for what you are doing. Every tangible thing you buy at some point gets discarded one way or another. You've consumed the energy and materials needed to make whatever it is.
Consuming does not mean eating. Either you produce, sell or consume a product.
