The 'ecoradicals' are eth ones who think that the ecosystem has a limited carrying capacity. Such a limit 'defines how large a species population can become before it overuses the resources available in the ecosystem'. Ecoradicals believe that human societies on earth are moving dangerously closer to the limits of the planet's carrying capacity; they also think that there are no simple technological fixes that can take care of the problem. Therefore, many 'eco radicals' call for strict population control and dramatic changes in modern lifestyles towards a more environment-friendly, less consumption-oriented and waste-producing way of life. It is the eco radical position that challenges the traditional IR methods. Ecoradicals calls for the dramatic changes in the lifestyles, including very important changes in the economic and political organization. They criticize arguments, such as the Brundtland Report, which call for environment protection within a framework of sustainable growth. Ecoradicals find that this is not at all-sufficient. For some, real sustainability means abandoning industrial mass production and reverting to some form of deindustrialized society. Behind such radical ideas lies a world view profoundly different from the 'modernist-anthropocentric' view that is dominant in Western secular thinking, i.e., that 'man is above nature'.
