Imp,
You've forgotten the markets are fueled by growth and everything that grows has a limit.
The world's population is expanding rapidly how are ging to solve that one.
Also our approach will encourage practices that harm landscapes (e.g. growing soya rather than rain forest. The amazon is closing in on becoming a desert and that would a massive effect on the global systems). It encourages exploitation for cash, it encourages monoculture cash crops like tabacco, cotton, coffe, palm oil all devastating whole evironments look up the Aral sea for example, its nice what our greed can do.
It encourages exploitation of people and countries as the rich countries move their manufacturing etc to poor countries to capitalise on cheap labour and lax laws on pollution and waste.
Also remember that USA and Europe are likely to become the poorer relations to the East and Russia. America already owes CHina billions and CHina is slowly but surely securing an awful lot of oil reserves and Russia will emerge very powerful as it has so much oil. WIll this mean ecomonic depression in the west possible don't you think. CHina has nuc's as does RUssia so no chance offighting them.
SO yeah globalise, spread industry, increase monoculture, fish te oceans dry, destroy the rain forests, increase the deserts and that doesn't even include the effects global warming at all.
The market will prevail...........only for the rich.
Simple
