Abstract

Combined youth spending power in the 11 major economies, including Australia, exceeds US$750 billion per year. But recent national research shows that against a constant marketing onslaught, young people seem to be becoming more aware of being a key part of the solution to over-consumption and its impact on global resources and are thinking about more sustainable ways of living.
