[QUOTE]Originally posted by tropicals redacted: [QB] People on ES have disagreed with me on this before, but I maintain that there aren't sufficient fossil fuels in the world for everyone to have the living standard associated with industrialised societies. I'm doubtful China will ever be uniformly developed. The term 'developing' is misleading, as it suggests a path which was never really there for most countries. [QUOTE] I am no economist, but I've longed intuited that you can't have the sheer level of material affluence we enjoy without hogging a larger proportion of resources for ourselves, away from the people who become the have-nots of the world. Our planet has only so many resources to share after all. It may make us uncomfortable, but we in the industrialized nations may have to cut back on our obscene rate of consumption in order for the so-called developing nations to prosper. But I don't think most of us will appreciate losing the luxury we've inherited from our heritage of imperialism, however serious that loss might be. It's not going to be an easy solution.[/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
