ABSTRACT
Mass production since the Industrial Revolution has led to an unprecedentedly prosperous quality of life. However, mass production has depended on fossil fuel-oriented growth strategy and thus led to an accumulation of greenhouse gases and thus climate change. Furthermore, such conventional strategies of economic development encountered limitations to sustaining current economic growth and development mainly due to possible exhaustion of natural resources as well as environmental pollution (Kang, 2012b, p.281).
