One impact of the rise in expectations for a better standard of living post-World War II was that more waste was created. As consumer culture expanded and people began to demand more products and conveniences, the increase in consumption led to higher levels of waste, as products were often designed for short-term use and rapid obsolescence. This shift contributed to significant environmental challenges and changes in waste management practices.
