- During the 1970s, China would undergo a drastic economic changes that would lead to a rise of consumer culture. The rise of consumer culture in China would soon lead to the rise of unequal social class systems existing in modern China, heavy production rates, the introduction of extreme markets in China, and ultimately negative effects on the climate that would later contribute to the growing climate crisis that plagues China and the rest of the world today. This would be due to the high rates of production leading to a rise of air pollution and the burning of fossil fuels. The implications to the rise of mass consumerism, is mass production in China. As the demand for goods and luxury items began to skyrocket, the Chinese market needed to keep up with demand. Most of China's industrial workplaces and factories used fossil fuels to make these products as production only continued to grow by the end of the Mao era in the middle of the 1970s. This is when the effects of climate changes started to be noticed by the rest of the world and climatologists. The constant release of fossil fuels due to production of demanded goods have led to an increase of toxic gases such as carbon dioxide to be present in the air, and that has led to the Greenhouse effect, that traps these toxic chemicals in our ozone layer and lower atmosphere, leading to the increase of heat in the global climate.
