I'm not interested if someone can get rich from the product.
The point is are the resources plentiful, renewable, and biodegradable.
🇳🇱
@Empiricism_Reloaded That seems like defeatist logic... if someone cant get rich off the product then the product wont ever be made.. even if something is plentiful and renewable it can still be something people get rich off of.... People literally get rich selling mushrooms and you could grow your own in a showbox with some woodchips.
@Empiricism_Reloaded haha you sure could, yet that implies demand and thus something that can be profited from.
Can you imagine an economy that had a different primary directive than a profit agenda? For example, what about not-for-profit organizations? The UK's national health service was founded on a health primary directive. "Profit" is merely one idea out of many.
@Empiricism_Reloaded not for profits still profit , its a misleading term I know... It means it doesnt have owners or people that profit through the ownership.. the people in a non profit still walk away with money (sometimes a lot of it), and the company itself still accrues profit and grows.
I suppose you could build a company that never grows, but if it does good by its very nature why would not want it to grow and spread the good thing it does to more people?
By "grow" you mean expand. Do you believe that all industries can continue to expand? i.e., economic "growth" - requiring more resources and power. As that is their agenda.
It would seem that the current economic paradigm is based on many unsustainable ideologies.
@Empiricism_Reloaded no industry, for profit or otherwise, grows infinitely. MArkets have limits. The point is, more important, that even if your motivation is ecological you are still part of economy and profiting (as a company) and that profit is intentional, you just refuse to call it profit when it is.
