Resumen

Este artículo investigó cómo las consumidoras perciben las compensaciones involucradas en el consumo sostenible. Fue una investigación de campo, exploratoria y con enfoque cualitativo, en la que se entrevistó a 9 consumidoras que se declararon adeptas al consumo sustentable. La mayoría de los entrevistados eran conscientes de que existen compensaciones involucradas en este consumo. Sin embargo, se observó que tienden a simplificar los conceptos abordados, enfatizando el aspecto ambiental, en particular, la disposición de residuos. Esta tendencia se refleja en las prácticas de consumo, muy centradas en la reutilización en detrimento de otros aspectos de la sostenibilidad como el ahorro de recursos y el no consumo.
