There is a difference between striving for basic amenities like clean water, healthy food etc, and the luxury of ordering vanities off Amazon every other day..

Not everyone desires the latter, yet it appears to be the much more environmentally impactful one at least at scale..

I would argue that the majority of people do want conveniences like the latter example you give. The "American Dream", if you will.
