Continuous Growth

The current economies of developed country is on a path of continuous growth. Since the most important economic measure is GNP, each country exhausts its resources to reach to compete with other consumer countries. This leads to the abuse of natural resources, fossil fuels, and environmental pollution. The more that each country tries to build itself up, is the more that each country is taking from the poorer countries of the world. This growth contributes to the destruction of the environment, the poverty in third world countries, and the failing health worldwide.

The constant removal of resources from already struggling countries leaves them even hungrier. The destruction of the environment contributes to the lack of water sources and open field needed by many to survive.
