IKEA ADVERT
The message that IKEA is sending to society?
-materialism
-consumption
-objects serve a purpose
-the new things are always better
-How does consumption of material goods link to climate change?
-Do companies have a ethical responsibility to address climate change?
-Should the judgement of a company's success only be measured through profit, or should it be about the environmental impact it has? 
Advertising- "Keeping the consumers dissatisfied"
"We live in a throw away society"
How does my attitude affect the environment
