“We’ve
 entered 
the
 era 
of 
the
 global 
auction,”
said
 Global 
Footprint
 Network 
President
 Dr. 
Mathis 
Wackernagel,
 “where 
nations
 are 
forced
 to compete
 fiercely 
for
 more
 expensive 
and 
less 
abundant
resources. 
It’s in their 
own
 self‐interest
 to 
preserve 
and 
restore 
the
 natural
 assets 
they
 have 
within
 their
 borders
 and
 avoid
 ecological
 deficit 
spending. 
In
 a
 resource‐constrained 
world,
 such
 spending 
will
become 
an 
ever‐more 
challenging
 economic 
burden.”
