How much further should the affluent world push its material consumption?. Does relative dematerialization lead to absolute decline in demand for materials?. Now even the most efficient production processes and the highest practical rates of recycling may not be enough to result in dematerialization rates that would be high enough to negate the rising demand for materials generated by continuing population growth and rising standards of living.
