From the supplier: Advertising plays a predominant role in the commercialization of the society. Advertising, which was originally meant to make people aware of the goods available in the market, has degenerated to creating wants and excess consumption among the people. It preys on the psychology of human beings, regardless of the harmful environmental effects caused by consumption of the product. The US leads the advertising industry by spending $468 per citizen on advertisements. Children are targeted from early childhood to become conscious of their apparel and food habits. Advertising cannot be stopped, but those dealing with harmful products such as alcohol, tobacco and junk food can be eliminated.
