Tiivistelmä: | Tools - or man-made capital, i.e. the capital of economists- are the exosomatic equivalents of organs. Both are created from environmental resources , promoting net energy flow from the environment to the owner. But current human economic behavior differs from that of non-human organisms. Humans are characterized by l.exploding their economic interaction /i.e. the transformation of natural to man-made capital and its use, storage, accumulation and transmission to the next generation/ into the exosomatic sphere, 2. standardizing net energy flow /largely one-way interspecific and reciprocal intraspecific/, and finally by 3. debt which means today's sale of tomorrow's yet unharvested and unowned natural capital. |
