Our world is now going to decide, like it or not, whether we have to proceed with growth policy or turn to the environmental lead toward better an cleaner world environment, which means approaching to zero growth as well as zero population growth.
It's actually both an extreme and cruel choice to world society, but it's the fact we face now. The serious problem concerning global warming resulted from heavy and persistent pollution and lead to scarcity of natural resources and worldwide energy crisis recently, trigger a worldwide debate whether economic growth should be slowed down to preserve both natural resources and the environment as well not to mention this condition also will eventually create price stability instead of inflation.
The consequences of this policy will finally lead to the zero population growth and steady state economy as well. It's ridiculous whena leader of a country said that he will preserve environment accordingly, but still adopt high economic growth rate.
We hope that decision could be made shortly before we destroyed all of our mineral/natural resources, drowned in our industrial wastes, and unavoidable worldwide heat where human could not sustain and live anymore. Apocalypse now !
