- Products (Goods and Services) are central to the operation of the socio-enviro-economic system
- The production of products is an economic activity that is a source of profit for companies.
- Without care, production of products degrades the environment, and some products are catastrophically unsustainable.
- Consumption of products is a part of quality of life. Smarter consumers and a circular economic model can make a huge improvement in sustainability.
- More and more may be good for corporate profits, but not so much for society and the environment
