The resource in energy and in minerals is really in my opinion the most limiting factor to the maintenance (even precarious) of current societies. Who are therefore doomed to decrease over time (without determining when, we will only know afterwards)
oh well then we agree in fact, we can not reduce the consumption of nonrenewable resources, and in particular those of fossils, without decreasing economically?
