I’m referring to unlimited growth opportunities in the new paradigm of turning the planet into a protected biosphere. Not just green tourism and hospitality and all it entails such as education, but also new scientific research. Less than 10% of species are formally described and studied, and the amount of new knowledge that we can learn from studying instead of destroying nature is unfathomable. We talk a lot about how great space exploration is and how we need to travel to new planets in our Solar System to get the goods on the most pressing questions, but the reality is that we haven’t begun to study Earth in any measurable way, and we are losing species and ecosystems faster than we can learn from them. This is the unlimited growth potential.
