🚨New Insight May 2, 2026

In this week’s IPSS Insight, Jesutimilehin O. Akamo, Coordinator of the Research and Policy Analysis Unit, examines the unsustainable link between rising global consumption and environmental impact in “The Paradox We Overlook: Sustainable Consumption, The Environment, and You.”

The Insight draws on Yoruba traditions where communities lived within ecological limits, to underscore that sustainability requires restraint as much as innovation, highlighting how current consumption exceeds planetary limits and the need to reduce use and make more responsible choices.
