It's now taking a toll beyond anything we could ever have imagined. What does it mean when one-sixth of the world's population consumes without any real restraint? Throughout the website, there are many references to advertising's role in creating and maintaining this situation. Not surprisingly, virtually all of the references to the practice of advertising are negative.

 a. the social phenomenon called corrective advertising.
  b. a strategic tool for pressuring advertisers called boycott.
  c. a push for consumers to mobilize and take certain actions called behavioral targeting.
  d. the self-regulatory practice called corrective advertising.
