It's true that people may consume to many things but it's also true that without consumption there would be no jobs or businesses. For all of the big talkers that want to be eco friendly, back to nature and not consume how many would really be willing to give up their electricity, computers, cell phones, supermarkets etc. and live on top of a mountain in a self sustaining completely isolated community. We need to consume we just need to find ways to consume more responsibly. The world economy is already in enough shambles without trying to make it worse by halting all consumption of all goods for even a day. What a silly idea.
