  1. Even a digital economy is bound to physical resources. You can't tap into the digital economy without some sort of digital device. A computer, a phone, a console, there is going to be resources used for the connection onto it, plus the economy itself needs servers and internet connections via physical connections like cable, DLS, or fiberoptic or requires a wireless connection, like wi-fi or cellular service. Eventually, infinite growth will require an infinite amount of computer components let alone infinite electricity to power it all. If nothing else, we do need better recycling of already used resources to stem the exhaustion of our natural resources. Also, we need to curtail population growth or even reverse it (allowing death rate to overtake the birth rate) to limit the amount of resources being expended.
