"The two main characteristics of the Ecocosm [=Gaia] Paradox are: (1) If human consumption growth continues, the planetary life support system will be disabled and humanity will itself become endangered. (2) If consumption growth is stopped, the viability of the world's economic and financial systems will be threatened, and the stability of governments and society will deteriorate." Willard R. Fey & Ann C.W. Lam, Ecocosm Dynamics Ltd, 2000."
