This article is not a very penetrating analysis, but it is interesting to see capitalism being forced to absorb and respond to costs that to this point have been treated as "externalities" to its economic processes. It makes one wonder whether the system can in fact avoid a tipping point caused by the despoiling of the planet that David K. originally pointed to, just as it has apparently survived the tanking of the economy.
