OT: Interesting read - ecological economy

[Kirk007]

for those of us who don't keep up in economic theory, I thought this was interesting: OP-ED CONTRIBUTOR
Mr. Soddy’s Ecological Economy. (www.nytimes.com/2009/04/12/opinion/12zencey.html?th&emc=th).

Any of the economists here know much about this; any recommendations for further (somewhat succinct) reading?
