Circularity, entropy, ecological conflicts and LFFU

The economy is not circular, it increasingly entropic. Energy from the photosynthesis of distant past, fossil fuels, burned and dissipated. Even without further economic growth industrial would need new supplies energy materials extracted “commodity frontiers”, producing also more waste (including excessive amounts greenhouse gases). Therefore, ecological distribution conflicts (EDC) arise all time. Such EDCs are often “valuation contests” displaying incommensurable plural values. Examples Atlas Environmental Justice given coal, oil gas-related in several countries combining local global complaints. Claims for climate justice recognition an debt have been put forward by environmentalists South since 1991, together with a strategy leaving fuels underground (LFFU) through bottom-up movements. This could make substantial contribution to decrease carbon dioxide emissions.
