Tiivistelmä: | In this paper the authors focus on expressing in mathematical form the following statement of Ecological Economics: A vital role of Nature in production is yielding resource flows that are transformed by the fund of man-made capital. The flow of resources and the fund of man-made capital are fundamentally complements. The authors formulate a simple economic growth model expressing that statement and contrast it with a model that makes production depend on the total fund of natural capital. While both models lead to an a priori limit to total output of man-made capital, their dynamics at the point where the natural resource constraint becomes binding differ greatly. |
