Is it possible that we will stop being a throwaway society?

In my opinion it is barely possible that we will stop being a throwaway society. Nowadays people live much faster than their ancestors, which causes the need for an immediate react for anything that happens. They prefer to have an easy access to cheap products with poor quality at the same time rather than a slightly more expensive things that will last them years. Considering the fact, that they use those things usually only once, they quickly get rid of them. Based on these arguments a chance to change other peoples behaviours is non-viable.

A stay in this luxurious hotel is a great deal only for wealthy people.

Facts about music part 1

Have you ever felt shivers when listening to your favourite song? If you are wondering, why they happen then keep on reading. The first thing as I mentioned before are those strange chills you get. They are actually caused by dopamine release, what it means is that your brain can be easily manipulated by different sounds, which to me sounds crazy. Next, the author of the text mentioned about affection of speed and loudness of music on our heartbeat. Surprisingly, the more stimulating music you are listening to e.g. hardcore or rave music the faster your heart beats. Same with listening to more calm music, it automatically calms you down. Some scientist say that music can be as addictive as drugs. If you ever had this strange, unpleasant feeling when you couldn't listen to music, beacause you left your earphones at home, you're probably a "music junkie".
