Club of Rome: Limits to Growth

RBF Definitions

(C)

"high standard of living without mining any more metals.

"I told the general news conference at Vancouver that the

Club of Rome's ignorance was occasioned by the overspecial-

ization of scientists. I then told the press conference

that I thought the Club of Rome had this year manifested

extraordinary courage and integrity in being willing to

completely reverse their public position--when they announced

in Philadelphia that they had found on reinspection that

their data was inadequate, ergo, their resulting conclusions

were wrong.

"Later that week I received an invitation to lunch with Mr.

Peccei, president of the Club of Rome, and at the luncheon

he personally verified their reversed position. I applauded

his integrity."
