RACE AGAINST TIME:
ADDRESSING THE CHALLENGE OF RESOURCE SCARCITY
7/1/2011
A SPECIAL REPORT FROM WINSLOW ENVIRONMENTAL NEWS
"Today mankind is locked into stealing ravenously from the future. By our sheer numbers, by the state of our technological development...we have made satisfaction of today's human aspiration dependent upon massive deprivation for posterity."
--William Catton, Overshoot
There has been no lack of attention by great thinkers to the
problem of scarcity over time. From the time of Malthus, economists
and philosophers have grappled with the seemingly intractable
problem of sustainability – that is to say, how can we create a
sustainable society, given the seemingly impossible task of reconciling the earth’s finite resources with mankind’s infinite appetite and ambition?
In this special Winslow Environmental News report, we discuss society's looming scarcity challenges, through the lens of our three most basic staples – food, water, and energy.
We examine how our population and per capita resource consumption has grown explosively as our technology has advanced, and how we are increasingly testing the capacity of our environment to supply these basic needs. In addition, we will discuss how a growing group of companies are developing a wide range of pioneering technologies and solutions that may help us mitigate or overcome the scarcity challenges that we face.
