$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he broad story is of depletion. Most of the easily obtainable resource deposits have already been exploited and most usable agricultural land is already in production. Natural resource discoveries, where they continue to occur, tend to be of a lower quality and are more costly to extract. Meanwhile, the dwindling supply of unutilised land faces competing demands from biodiversity, biofuels and food production.

A few tens of trillions of dollars here, a few tens of trillions of dollars there, pretty soon you're talkin' about real money!


Grim as this report sounds, they seem to think a mere application of (boat loads of) money will solve something as absolute as resource depletion. That's economists for you.
