In spite of the infinite adaptability of capitalism which, in the case
of an acute ecological catastrophe or crisis, can easily turn ecology
into a new field of capitalist investment and competition, the very
nature of the risk involved fundamentally precludes a market solution
- why? Capitalism only works in precise social conditions: it implies
the trust into the objectivized/"reified" mechanism of the market's
"invisible hand" which, as a kind of Cunning of Reason, guarantees
that the competition of individual egotisms works for the common good.
