The Role of Natural Resources in Economic Developmentscientific article The author is elaborating on the "new thinking" concerning the relationship between natural resources and economic development, and in particular, on the key issues and debates that are emerging from this thinking. He characterizes briefly on how physical, human and natural capital are now thought to contribute to the functioning of an economic system. What becomes immediately clear is that the services provided by natural capital are unique, and in the case of the ecological services and life-support functions of the environment, are not well understood. As a result, there has also been considerable debate over the role of natural capital in "sustainable" economic development.  https://arpok.padlet.org/info16110/dexpo-climate-change-and-media-literacy-2fkpwbv8hzayp7kw/wish/220887734130 pagesclimate change, global education
