..What do you mean by "finite system"?


I mean a system that is closed. Effectively, I mean at a global level. We cannot currently grow away from this planet. Thus we are limited to growing upon it. The amount of energy available to us is limited to what the sun provides. This amount, although large, is finite, as is the available land area, quantity of useful and recoverable resources, etc.

Is it possible to continue to expand the amount of these resources that you utilise indefinitely?

By growth, I mean the increase, over time, in the rate of utilisation of those resources.
