This is a certain parochialism that everyone falls into, there's a more macro version of that, which is We're running out of resources philosophy. And it starts with the Earth is finite. There's this finite set of resources. We're running out and we're consuming them all and therefore we're all going to die. If we don't tempt back our consumption. First of all, how did you decide it was the earth? Why did you decide that your town wasn't running out of resources. Why wasn't the town the actual area that you wanted to save? And then everything outside of that was foreign and unreachable, why draw the boundary around the earth, we could go to the solar system. We could go to the Galaxy. We could go to the universe. We go to the Multiverse there's a lot of resources out there. If you know how to harness them. And then how do you define what a resources? A resource is? Just something that through knowledge. You can convert from one thing to another. So there was a time when Cole wasn't a resource, iron wasn't a resource to a caveman very few things are resources just a few edible plants in a few edible animals and that's it. But domestication harvesting crops Metallurgy chemistry physics developing engines and Rockets. All of these are things that are taking things that we thought were worthless and turn into Resources uranium has gone from being completely worthless to being an incredible resource. So this finite resource model of the world, implicitly assumes, finite knowledge. It says, knowledge creation has come to an end. We are stuck at this current point and therefore based on the knowledge that we have currently. These are all the resources available to us. Now. We must start conserving but knowledge is the thing that we can always create more of
