Yo pienso que has puesto el énfasis en un punto candente: el desarrollo sostenible.
Teniendo en cuenta la lógica capitalista con la que se mueve el mundo, y con el cuadro de situación que enfrenta nuestro planeta ante amenazas tan graves como lo son el calentamiento global y el hambre; entiendo que los dos términos de ese concepto son mutuamente excluyentes.
Autores destacatodos, como así también controvertidos, como James Lovelock (autor de la Teoría Gaia, junto con Lynn Margulis), en su última obra "La venganza de la Tierra", sostiene que el discurso del desarrollo sotenible es ya "insostenible" y que habría que pensar mejor en la "retirada sostenible" de nuestra especie del Planeta. Contundente afirmación pero para pensar.
