of
The traditional North American
lifestyle geared to ever increasing
consumption has lost much of its
glamour. Alternative lifestyles
adapted- to a conserver society
have become a provocative . sub-
ject • for discussion. and part-
icularly so among faculty memo-.
ers of the Department of Con-
sumer Studies. at the University
of Guelph.
They are exploring alternative
lifestyles that will. permit a more
harmonious relationship with this
planet. Such lifestyles would
allow us to enjoy the benefits and
comforts of a, n industrialized
society. while at the same time
safeguarding the environment
and conserving nowrenewable
resources.
'"The Conserver Society: Many
Challengers," is the title of the
first in a series of "FACS" sheets
published by the College of
Family and Consumer Studies at
the University of Guelph. It
describes futtire scenarios and
suggests ways to increase aware-
ness on conserver issues. change
consumer behavior and .im-
plement conserver practices.

conscious lifestyle. • Many
proponents of a conserver society
e,} cc' it as necessity. brought about
by disappearing natural resources
and .increasing strain on the
ecosystem. Others see .a con-
server society as a socially
desirable alternatiye to unquest-
ioned economic growth' and ever-
increasing consupiptiOn,.,
"Conserver attitudes and
strategies could enhance our lives
by bringing. us closer to natureano
ourselves," claims 'Professor ,.
Richard Vosbargh, chairman of
the 'department of ^consumer
studies at the University of,
Guelph. "We could reduce. out
dependence on , complex
technologies,"
Somewhere down the road we
will run out of"-same nonrenew-
able resources. Professor Louise
Heslop describes two reactions to
this inevitability. One is to
recognize that the supply Of
resources is finite and that we are
using' them at an alarming rate.
Adopting conserver practices now
will postpone the, day, of reckon-
ing. The other approach. assumes
• that a technological development
, will intervene in- time to keep our
fuel-intensive lifestyles-intact be-
fore the fuel runs out,„"liplying
on a technological fix is like
whistling in the dark" she says.
"If technology doesn't save' us.
then 'we are suddenly faced with
exhaustion of fossil fuel
supplies." -
"It's impossible to convince the
man at the bottom of the
economic ladder that. h e should
adopt conserver attitudes and do
more with less,• points out
Professor John Auld. "If we can
'show him that conserving saves
money, he might tty. it,"7
"We not only have to 'bring
about ' a change ',in -consumer
attitudes:: notes Prof. Heslop.
"but, create a framework in
which conserver practices are
convenient and rewarded. We
-have to provide theincentive for'
both business • and consumers."
Consumer education will play a
crucial role in bringing 'about
conserver attitudes and practices.
"We have to provide the concern-
ed consumer with enough ac-
curate information to make an
informed ' decision." ventures,
Prof. Vosburgh. A more forcefur
technique is through legislation.
In reality, a combination of
strategies may be 'peces.sary in
order to. exert enotigh, of an
impact..
"We (ion know enough about
how' consumers make decisions to
be able to bring about a wide-
scale change in behaviour,"
claims Prof. Heslop. Her iesearch
will provide some of this basic
knowledge. She is trying to
determine the degree, of choice
necessary for' consumer satisfact-
ion and 'how consumers, function
in a restricted choice situation.
';We also need to .know about
e011S1.1.111C "motivation." she con-
tinues. "What could trigger ui
change in thinking about many,.
things? , This will require a
concerted effort by governments.
cons m e organizations. ' in;
dividuals and business."
Speculation about a .eonserver..
society is futuristic • thinking,
`loch' isboth stimulating and
frust a Ong . Moving from con-
sumption oriented society to a -
conserver society will involve.
sonic inevitable -problems, tough
decisions and temporary slips in ,

Research, planning, discussion

'focus on long-term conserver
policies now while there is still
time left for alternatives, say the
