ecological debt  

Definición

  • The idea of ecological debt refers to how human societies have come to live, so to speak, beyond their ecological means. Ecological debt accrues whenever resources are removed from their natural state faster than they can naturally be renewed, or when pollutants are emitted faster than they can naturally be assimilated. [Source: Encyclopedia of Political Theory; Ecological Debt]
