Abstract

The turbulent development of human civilization is faced with the serious challenge of its sustainability. Despite the fact that, declaratively, discourses in academic, scientific and political circles point out all the urgency of resolving this issue of further development of human society, there are few reversals and changes in the functioning of economic and social systems so far. The issue of sustainability has two dominant dimensions – economic, in the sense of exploitation of natural resources and environment pollution, and social, in the sense of actual responsible behaviour and inequality of individuals in terms of meeting basic and broader human needs. This paper is an attempt at contributing to the development of the awareness of the problem of development of society and consumption in it, and pointing at possible avenues of acting of relevant individuals and institutions in this sense, through studying attitudes, level of consciousness and perceptions of sustainable consumption, and through the measurement of the environmental and social dimensions, analysing the significance and actual behaviour of respondents from Generation Y, i.e. generation born after 1980, very often in the focus of research of marketing theory and practice. The paper discloses that there is a significant disproportion between the significance of individual elements of sustainability for individual, and actual behaviour of the respondents in regard of sustainable consumption.
