Part Four 



WHAT REMAINS? 



Too long we have reckoned our resources in terms of 

 illusion. Money, even gold, is but a metrical device. It 

 is not the substance of wealth. Our capital is the accumu- 

 lation of material and energy with which we can work. 

 Soil, water, minerals, vegetation, and animal life these are 

 the basis of our existence and the measure of our future. 



Paul B. Sears, This Is Our World, 7937.
