Humans consume the natural resources of the Earth faster than the Earth is able to regenerate them. Mankind on the whole lives above its means and often at the expense of future generations. Current economic activity, with the aim of maximising monetary profits and generating quantitative growth and prosperity, cannot be continued. The Peren Theorem demonstrates that the consumption of natural resources within a closed system, as represented by Earth, is only possible if their consumption is able to naturally regenerate. If this balance is disturbed for too long a period, this will then result in the natural death of the planet. With an increasing global population, the per capita consumption of natural resources of all humans living on or from the Earth must be proportionately reduced.
