A truely
finite
thing c
annot be re
produced and may be polluted or destroyed. All other
things are
composed of one or more
finite
things. This
means all
things are
finite in some way.
Sun, air,
water,
soil,
radio spectrum,
time
Some
finite
things may be able to re
produce a
copy of themselves, but the potential for a species or for
software is destroyed if the final
copy of that
type is
deleted.

The surface area of

Other re

The

Unbridled
privatization of
finite re
sources allows
owners dominion over more than their fair
share. The holding can be so large that there no longer seems to be
enough. The
owners then
typically
use artificial
scarcity to
create
slavery and
profit.
Finite re
sources include:
Land : Surface area of the earth and
soil
Space:
Sun and
Wind considerations for
buildings and trees.
Air : Pollution,
spraying
Water:
Soil : minerals,
salts, metals, silver, diamond, petrol
Genes: The DNA of
plants,
animals or
fungus
Info : Optimal de
signs and
solutions are
finite in number.
Pollution capacity: There'
s less of this than ever.
Physics:
radio frequencies,
IP addresses
