In a real wealth-based economy, natural resources will not be over-exploited from the borrowing of credit money. For this reason alone, environmentalists should embrace the Austrian school of economics that teaches that sound or "real" money is based on a commodity produced from nature, so that all exchanges are of one currently-existing product of nature for another currently-existing product of nature. Greater production in energy-intensive enterprises like home construction would be possible only when there is the money to do so.
