#Capitalism is at the root of the environmental collapse tightening its grip on the Earth's biosphere, leading to the probable collapse of local #ecosystems, and food shortages throughout the world. Dr. Luiz Marques, a leading proponent of #EcologicalEconomics (http://isecoeco.org) shows why an economy based on continuous exponential growth, is unsustainable. He takes us along a timeline of destruction beginning in 1950, and accelerating from 1990 on, when most of the emissions have occurred.
Dr. Marques is a Professor of Environmental History at the State University of Campinas in São Paolo, Brazil. He opposes the 'neoclassical economics' taught in business schools around the world, which considers Nature and the environment as mere externalities.
A philosophy professor specializing in logic, Dr. Marques provides the logical connections between current economic systems and ecological devastation.
