Nowadays we can see definite signs of surplus production in almost every industry sector, and this is leading to environmental damage. what are some possible solutions to this situation?
In contemporary times, overproduction has been rapidly increasing in every sector which not only has an adverse effect on the ecosystem but also on the natural resources. It has raised alarm among environmentalists who suggest taking some steps to control this by mitigating this issue from the roots.
To begin with, many experts believe that excessive production can be reduced by enabling coordination between manufacturing and sales departments as they are the prominent source of this issue. They can resolve it by taking a few initiatives. For instance, some personnel associated with the production department will be asked to minimize the unreasonable production until onhold stock is not utilized and the sales department has to emphasise on selling the produced goods first and then look forward for further targets to produce more. Consequently, natural resources will be used appropriately and environmental damage will be dramatically controlled.
Another important way to control this is a consumerist attitude, people have a power which controls the market trends. If they abstain from use and throw practice and buy something new every now and then - and dump what has gone out of vogue, the industry will be forced to curtail the excessive production as they cannot afford to bear losses by holding unnecessarily produced commodities. Beside this, governments can make a law by urgently imposing quotas on surplus production and also ensure that if any one fails to adhere, will be penalised severely, it will push the industrialist to take steps to restricting this wasteful practice.
In hindsight, I strongly opine that the issue of controlling the excessively produced goods can be handled effectively if organisations, consumers and the state make joint efforts. Endeavors of such dimensions cannot be handled successfully unless all stakeholders become a party to these.
