The latest Greendex survey, conducted by the National Geographic - TopicsExpress



          

The latest Greendex survey, conducted by the National Geographic Society (NGS) and the research consulting firm GlobeScan, shows that although consumers in many countries are adopting environmentally friendly behaviors, others live in wasteful cultures of consumption. The results are an embarrassment to the affluent west. We in the west are the worst offenders, we have the capital and technology to make the greatest difference, yet we choose to live for today and to hell with tomorrow. There is a simple rule. Closed systems have limits. The earth is a closed system. We can’t have exponential growth forever. We must stop. But to stop growing requires free market capitalism to be replaced with a “Steady State” or Resource Based economic model, and that Im afraid, will never be allowed by the elite that rules the world and most of the brainwashed population that happily lives feeding this suicidal economic model.
