NEW FEATURE: An Economy Not Worth Saving
Jun 30, 2010, 10:10
The prioritising of economic growth ignores some simple and vital truths. Mainly, that you can't have continually increasing consumption of finite resources.

There is a need to produce and provide for our needs and a sizeable degree of comfort beyond that, but attempting infinite growth is impossible and, ultimately, suicidal.

Dale Pendell's nailed it succinctly; we should recognise that we've done growing and have now reached maturity. He spells it out in the new U-Know Feature article, An Economy Not Worth Saving.
