SUSTAINABLE Consumption and Production (SCP) represents one of the key target goals for the United Nations (UN) 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The United Nations Environment Programme defines SCP as “a holistic approach in minimising the negative environmental impacts from consumption and production systems, while promoting quality of life for all”.
Resource or economic efficiency however, can only be made possible if consumers demand sustainable products. From the demand or consumer side, the objective of SCP is to meet the consumption needs of the poor and low income group, as well as managing the overconsumption issues among higher income societies.
