It would be great. But last I checked the youngsters are just about the biggest consumers I've ever seen. Anecdotal, sure, but nevertheless buying Tesla and things like that still doesn't make anyone an environmentalist. But doing real changes like buying mostly used goods (and trying to avoid buying things in the first place) makes you social outcast so I try not to be too hard on people, especially youngsters. Going with the masses is the easiest way to handle life. Thus, the changes really must be forced upon us by regulation, so that there is no shame choosing the "poor people thing". It is of utmost importance that whatever those regulations would be, you shouldn't be able to buy your way out of them. Things like a personal consuming limit for "bad thing" X that is absolute and there is no way around to buy yourself more. Dystopian, sure, and in general I'm not even a fan of big government.
