This week we talked about the relationship between us and our planet.

Quite a few of us think that we are consuming our planet too much with so fast pace.

Population is growing, so eventually we consume more.

Week 13 homework; "the human species is living as if it had more than one planet to occupy"

I think that's partially true.

About 30 years ago, an Economist argues that 30 years later there would be no more resource for us because we are consuming so rapidly and population grows very fast.

We are rapidly consuming our planet but at the same time technology is rapidly growing.

So it is hard to say there would be no more resource in the future.
