against climate change: Curb the over-population and sustainable growth

The retro style is back! And that wave swim with all, as long as you still can. You can see where the stars, shows and television, in shopping areas, in book, image and politics. So it happens that a book gets on the bestseller list, the study of the Club of Rome "Limits to Growth" picks up. The constant desire for comfort, luxury, profit and power, the ever-increasing growth and - resulting - increased exploitation of the planet force the people seem to rethink, because Ernst Ulrich von Weizsacker argues in his book "factor five" again for simplicity and sustainability.

world online - not the over-population may fall behind climate change was the 75-year-old peace ambassador for the United Nations, Jane Goodall, recently in London, "It is very frustrating that people do not want to deal with this subject" . Therefore carry the rapidly growing world population large debt to "any individual" problem on the globe. In addition to 14 received honorary doctorates, six other awards - including the Prince of Asturias Prize, the highest English award - is Jane Goodall, among others, Member of the Max-Planck-Institut and the Explorers Club, teeming with the most important scientists and explorers .

online world - capitalism, consumerism, desire and envy. For example, luxury goods. These have sold like hot cakes even before the crisis and to the delight of businessmen and investors, the industry regains momentum. However, this excess is driving us again in the wrong direction. Deposits are fleeced, unstable areas are still unstable, Ecosystems are being destroyed, whole villages and towns - built up over generations - to be relocated. Then radiant, estrogenic or toxic substances into groundwater and contaminate whole regions and lakes get high in the mountains, away from any big city. Is this the world we live in?

had dealt with this issue once the Club of Rome 'in the 70s. However, more likely was the wish father to the thought and the reality was and is unfortunately quite different. The idea: An end to growth related resistance and humility, for "the undifferentiated cancerous growth is the root cause of the problems and material wealth makes man even happier. The human race would go through overpopulation and pollution of food and raw material shortages based. The highlight, however, we have yet to come: in 2010.

NDR info - Former President Ernst Ulrich von Weizsacker wants with its master plan to the energy, water and raw material consumption in the world, with targeted reconstruction to reduce by 80%. The slogan is "Think big but." Already in his book "Factor Four", he described vividly the ecological future of Earth and warned against excess and gluttony. In his work he is now on the technical progress and the leading role of Europe in a "technical alliance" with Asia, because "the U.S. Congress has not intended it to move."
