What do you mean "our lifestyle is set"?
Who set it, with what authority?
Our lifestyle developed, and the development was guided by capitalism's demand for consumerism. Someone made billions from it.
But guess what: you don't have buy into that.
Get a bike.
Get a pair of shoes that last a lifetime.
Wear that old shirt and only buy a new one when you apply for a new job or get married.
Shop in a thrift store.
Learn how to repair things, esp. your computer.
You know. Don't say "our lifestyle is set" when what you mean is "I, personally, can't be be bothered to act until half of humanity is wiped out"
