Abstract: Several revolutions in the past have taken humanity progressively to an era of unlimited resource use as seen today. As the world races to consume exponentially increasing quantities of resources, the danger of hitting the carrying capacity of the planet is looming. Along with climate change, sustainable production and consumption of resources remain a major concern today. Short-term fixes and half-baked solutions will not be able to stop the slide of this linear model into total collapse. A systems approach based on the lifecycle of resource use has been well, but tools for implementing this at a ground level are lacking.
