Buckminster Fuller first described the concept in his 1970 paper Cosmic Costing , contrasting the photosynthesis on which natural capital and sustainability sustainable infrastructural capital depend, with the chemosynthesis of extracting and using fossil fuel s. Paul Hawken is a more recent advocate of the concept, and views it as central to his notion of a restorative economy . It remains a popular notion among those who believe that toxic waste and maintenance problems of direct solar energy devices can ultimately be overcome, or that yields of passive or biological means of gathering and using this energy as biofuel s can be made to approximate those of fossil fuels.

The term Eltonian Niche refers to a definition of the ecological niche concept that emphasizes the functional attributes of animals and their corresponding trophic position. This was the definition Eugene Odum popularized in his analogy of the ecological niche niche of a species with its profession in the ecosystem as opposed to the habitat ecology habitat being its address. The definition is attributed to Charles Elton in his 1927 now classic book Animal Ecology ref Elton, C. 1927 Animal Ecology. Sidgwick and Jackson, London. Reprinted several times, e.g. 2001 by The University of Chicago Press, ISBN 0 226 20639 4 ref . Elton used the two Africa n Rhinoceros species to exemplify the definition. The White Rhinoceros has broad wide, hence its name mouthparts, which are efficient in harvesting grass, while the Black Rhinoceros has narrow pointed lips enabling it to feed selectively on the foliage of thorny bushes.
