#新石油文明論 --砂漠化と #寒冷化 で終わるのか
> #自由貿易 という用語で、いわゆる先進国が自国の農業には #補助金 をつけながら 他の国には輸入の自由化を要求している状況をさしている。 そのような補助金のないほんとうの自由貿易でも問題はあると考えているようだが、 必ずしもはっきりしない。 「現代 #砂漠化 の基本的原因は #穀物の過剰生産 」(5.2)で指摘されていることは、 DALYふうに表現すれば、 アメリカ合衆国、カナダ、オーストラリアなどの #農業 が、 機械や肥料などの形で石油を、 また多くの地域で更新能力をこえて地下水を使っており、 しかもこれらの自然資本(天然資源)のストックの損失は 価格メカニズムでは正当に反映することができない、という問題である。

1 Jon Erickson, Prof. U of VermontWe talk about Herman Daly, an economist who considered the cost of unfettered growth.Think of the environment as a circle, within that circle is a box which represents the economy. Having the box grow in an unlimited way means that it will put pressure on the circle. So we must always consider the economy in this context.What/ whom is the economy for?2 Jonathan Feingold, Prof. Boston University School of Law#RaceClass Ep. 11 | Race as a Story (that Justifies Inequality)Race is a social construct. The phrase is easy to say. But often we struggle to explain what it means. To deepen our racial literacy, we dig into one of the socially constructed components of race: the meanings (e.g., stereotypes) associated with a given racial category. Racial meanings do more than ascribe traits (e.g., industrious, lazy, deserving, undeserving) to a particular group. Racial meanings also explain and legitimize a groups relative social status. In so doing, race narrates our world"often with...

Nice piece: "The inconvenient truth of Herman Daly: There is no #economy without #environment"
@costrike My first two questions where "when was this given?" (November 15, 2022) and does she mention #HermanDaly, who just died? (Yes.)
Thanks for sharing, digging in now.
Herman Daly obituary at The Guardian:
... Herman was not the first economist to argue for a steady-state economy, but he was the first to define it. He recognised that it would require policies to limit the physical scale of economies – their use of energy and materials – to within planetary boundaries; to ensure a just distribution of incomes and wealth; and for making economies more efficient in how resources are allocated to the production of different goods and services. ...

A Herman Daly memorial written by Jon D. Erickson:
Remembering the renegade economist who fought for growth the Earth could actually sustain
I'm hit hard by this news. Daly was one of the few clear voices within the economics profession calling for an embrace of limits through much of the period from the 1970s onward. Not the only, but consistent, principled, and persuasive. His struggles with the economic mainstream, at the University of Louisiana (where his PhD candidates were effectively frozen out of degree conferral), at the World Bank (where he was economist in the early 1990s), and with the profession at large are ... a case study and Greek tragedy (shades, of course, of Cassandra).
And ... I'd utterly missed the fact of his death, which occurred on 28 October and was published in the Times on 8 November, a week ago. It was a quote at the end of another opinion essay (on of all things, Musk and Birdsite) which caught my eye, and made me wonder just how often Daly had been mentioned in the Times.
And so I discovered his obit.
Peter Coy's piece is here: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/14/opinion/musk-twitter-tesla.html
The quote:
“There is something fundamentally wrong in treating the Earth as if it were a business in liquidation.”
From Steady-State Economics (1977) http://pombo.free.fr/daly1991.pdf
And yes, there've been a number of other mentions, though not nearly as many as Daly deserved:

Among the more interesting, "Mr. Soddy's Ecological Economy" (Daly is a bit player, but the ideas are central to his message):
