WWF - Consumption of resources report

"We are spending nature's capital faster than it can regenerate," said WWF chief Claude Martin, releasing the 40-page study. "We are running up an ecological debt which we won't be able to pay off unless governments restore the balance between our consumption of natural resources and the Earth's ability to renew them."

You mean besides restructure the world economy?

What do you expect them to say? Everything is fine? Crisis = Money

This goes for Churches, civil rights leaders, scientists, politicians, and others.

IMO total BS. Just like global warming. That report is so one sided. I remember that old movie from 74, Soylent Green. Soylent Green is made from peeeeeopleeeeee!!!!!!!! Scare tactics to make a buck.

If this were true, why are we still going along at a reasonable level?
Sounds awfully suspicious to me.
Where do they come up with this stuff? Is this another way to get the US to conserve while part of the world runs amuk? (ie deforestation in South America)
