The Great Debate at the European Geosciences Union General Assembly 2011 considered How will Europe face the raw materials crisis?, you can watch the debate online and the session details are here.
Someone in the audience (around 70′) at the Great Debate questioned using the model of increasing consumption driving increasing metal use and advocated a sustainable development model. None of the panel accepted the idea, what do you think?
Please respond in the comments, do you think a sustainable development model is possible? will increasing consumption still drive to increasing metal use? are there other alternatives?
