Key facts
The « Meadows report » forecasts a decay by 2100
- The survival of humanity depends directly on the health of the ecosystem (water cycle, temperature, biodiversity, soils, ...)
- GDP = K x Energy = consumption of resources + negative externalities
- Growth of GDP = producing & consuming more / more pollution

- Climate change
- Biodiversity (anthropocene)
- Peak oil
- End of metals
- Death of the soils
- 3 % of growth = doubles every 25 years
