Abstract

The problem of natural resource exploitation and distribution and the implications it brings, is a complex problem, its causes are diverse and their solution apart from being a technical difficulty, is also political decision. Private growth is conceived as an end in itself and politics whose center and end the life of the human being underestimated.

The ecological imbalance is the result of human action, the product of anti-ecological consciousness that favors having over being, promoting consumer lifestyle, which leads man to produce and consume, where the highest values are the laws of market, whose demands are detrimental to nature and the resources it provides .

The logic of growth that has supported the production model is the one that obeys the maximization of profits with cost reduction, leading to exploit the land and its resources without saving rationality at the expense of ecological balance and the same human being to be the subject and purpose of economic activity.
