Excerpt from pages 308-309 of Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
'Ecological economists argue for reforms that would ground eco nomics in ecological principles and the constraints of thermodynamics. They urge the embrace of the radical notion that we must sustain natural capital and ecosystem services if we are to maintain quality of life. But governments still cling to the neoclassical fallacy that human consumption has no consequences. We continue to embrace economic systems that prescribe infinite growth on a finite planet, as if somehow the universe had repealed the laws of thermodynamics on our behalt. Perpetual growth is simply not compatible with natural law, and yet a leading economist like Lawrence Summers, of Harvard, the World Bank, and the U.S. National Economic Council, issues such statements as, "There are no limits to the carrying capacity of the earth that are ikely to bind at any time in the foreseeable future. The idea that we should put limits on growth because of some natural limit is a pro tound error." Our leaders willfully ignore the wisdom and the models of every other species on the planet-except of course those that have gone extinct. Windigo thinking.'
