On The Cycle Of Consumption

Since the mid-20th century, the development of the human face of unprecedented population, resources, environmental stress, a serious obstacle to the economic development and improving the quality of human life, and then threatening the future survival and development of mankind. In this grim situation, the circular economy and rapid development have been proposed for human resources and environmental problems to solve to open a new way of thinking. Of circular economy in developed countries began in the 60's, with the resources and environmental problems in recent years become more prominent, international theorists study the development of circular economy is gradually warming up, and has made many theoretical and practical results.But the current world research on the theory of circular economy more focused on the production level, for part of purely theoretical research involves spending less. Development of circular economy, in essence, it means asking people to change the traditional "substantial investment, mass production, mass consumption, a large number of abandoned" model of economic growth, emphasis on efficient use of resources and recycling, promote clean production and consumption of substances in appropriate, the level of consumption, and consumption at the same time to give full consideration to waste resources, so as to establish production and consumption cycle of economic growth. To analyze the concept from the system, recycling is both production and consumption cycle of circular economy constitutes an important component of the system, but concrete realization of the development of circular economy are two important mechanisms. Consumption is not only an economic problem but also a social problem, and closely associated with the resources and the environment. However, a long time, how to deal with people and nature live in harmony on the relationship, the main concern is the production of the negative effects of resources and the environment. In fact, all the resource and environmental problems are ultimately the result of consumption and consumption patterns. Environmental crisis is a crisis of humanity, while the consumption problem is the core of environmental crisis. Therefore, the implementation of the cycle of consumption is to promote the operation and development of circular economy an important mechanism is to solve the problems of the current resources and environment and social development, conflict between the important way to build a resource-saving and environment-friendly society and realize the importance of sustainable development approach has important practical significance.At present, academic and government departments on consumer awareness of recycling and research is still in its infancy, many aspects of the issue being explored. Therefore, the study of circulation and consumption of content, elements, principles, characteristics and development strategies, the development cycle consumption theory undoubtedly further improve the theory of circular economy is of great significance.
