In the past, humans regarded their<br />

resources as rare, knowing that<br />

their demands outweighed supply.<br />

Everything available had <strong>to</strong> be<br />

used and almost nothing went <strong>to</strong><br />

waste. Due <strong>to</strong> limited techniques,<br />

natural resources remained largely<br />

unexploited and all types of<br />

waste had <strong>to</strong> be recycled.<br />
