If done properly, no. The more a society reuses and redistributes its used material, the more it becomes a circular economy, meaning it will be less dependent on finite resources and less damage will be done to the environment and ecosystems, which human societies rely on as well.

It requires a lot of people to be properly educated and motivated on the subject though, as well as governments giving companies incentives to make this possible.
With right-wing populism being on the rise however, my hopes for this to be effective aren't great.
