No 284129, 1975 Annual Meeting, August 10-13, Columbus, Ohio from American Agricultural Economics Association (New Name 2008: Agricultural and Applied Economics Association)

Abstract: In summary, our concern over scarcity and growth today is based on the long-standing issues as to whether we are developing technologies as fast as we are depleting high-grade resources. But our perception of the race is more sophisticated due to our increased awareness of the inevitable, the potential, and the sometimes irreversible environmental and social consequences of rushing ahead.
