   Hello...   
      
      
   More philosophy about is economic growth sustainable in capitalism ?   
      
   Some benchmarks for the year 2014:   
      
   The global average ecological footprint is 2.84 gha per person while the   
   average biocapacity is 1.68 gha per person; it takes 1.69 Earth to cover   
   the consumption of humanity; and this global average ecological   
   footprint brings problems.   
      
   A French person needs 4.7 gha to maintain his standard of living. If all   
   humans consumed as much as a Frenchman, we would need 2.79 planets;   
      
   An American needs 8.37 gha for his consumption. If all humans consumed   
   like an American, we would need 4.97 planets;   
      
   A Brazilian has an ecological footprint of 3.08 hag (1.83 planet);   
      
   A Chinese has a footprint of 3.71 hag (2.21 planets);   
      
   An Indian has a footprint of 1.12 hag (0.67 planet).   
      
   a Haitian has a footprint of 0.67 hag (0.4 planet).   
      
      
   Thank you,   
   Amine Moulay Ramdane.
