From David M. Delaney

It is disheartening to see Âé¶¹´«Ã½ present an issue on globalisation that does not mention the possibility that unregulated economic growth may be unable to achieve its most important boast: eliminating poverty. A simple calculation suggests that there are not enough natural resources for this mad idea to work. If you need convincing, read chapter 7 of Beyond Growth by Herman Daly (Beacon Press, 1996).
