Middle East Africa Economic and Investment Forum: It is physical scientists looking at what economic growth has already done to the planet who raise this question. Many of them doubt the availability of the resources necessary for continued economic growth. More urgently, they point out that the environment cannot cope with the pollution already inflicted upon it. Global warming is only one form, but the costs it alone inflicts on the future are horrendous. Economists develop their models on the assumption that the condition of the physical world is not important.
. They point to great improvements possible in the efficiency with which resources are used and recycled.. Supporters of growth argue that with this growth comes technological progress and that this generates the needed resources and means of keeping pollution within acceptable limits Therefore, rather than slow economic growth, we should do all we can to accelerate it.
