According to Alfred Marshall, an English economist, one of the founders of the neoclassical direction in economics, the head of the Cambridge neoclassical school, consumption is a kind of negative production, because in the process of consumption there is a decrease or destruction of utility.
I will try to immediately bring the mainstream association to my opposite to the Marshall idea.
Do you remember the ship LEXX from the movie of the same name? What material was it made of? This organic matter, created from all that surrounds us. This is exactly how I feel about negative production.
In addition, and people do not retain in themselves all food kilograms that consume and it becomes part of organic matter, which is possible in tens or even hundreds of years, turns into oil, and is part of the exchange of goods on a planetary scale. So why should so many resources be translated into the concept of negative production?
It may be difficult to calculate this value, and it is easier to take into account the available resources. Then we end up with the fact that the reserves of our planet, and even the sun itself, are not calculated correctly. As it turns out in the end.
I urge you to invent new values, justify with new methods! There are no limitations in science, there is only a lack of new ideas.
