Consumption is what the corporations want everybody to increase. They want more people to buy more stuff, throw away more stuff and replace it with yet even more stuff, some of which you stuff into your own face so that you become diabetic and need to buy more medical stuff. Corporations only profit when people consume, after all, so almost every message that's pushed in our modern society is engineered around an agenda to promote mass consumption for the purpose of boosting corporate profits. (Regardless of what happens to the environment as a result.)
Depletion is what happens when the planet's citizens use up all the finite resources: hydrocarbons (fossil fuels), fresh water (aquifers), topsoil, clear-cutting forests for GMO soybean production, strip-mining rare earth metals to build guilt-supported wind farms for "green" energy, destroying natural marine ecosystems, and so on.
