(8) Green Business & Ecological Economics

For a look at the bigger picture – how to create a sustainable economy where good, meaningful work is the norm, not the exception – try the following links. Eco-Economy: Save The Planet (and Prosper). How do you rebuild the economy without destroying the earth? "The principals of ecology are as real as those of aerodynamics. If an aircraft is to fly, it has to stisfy certain criteria of thurst & lift. Likewise, if an economy is to sustain progress, it must satisfy the basic principles of ecology. If it does not, it will decline and eventually collapse. There is no middle ground. An economy is either sustainable or it is not. This month, Lester Brown explores what the new economy would look like." With examples of eco-economic industries; sunset industries; expanding professions. Excerpt from Lester Brown's new book, "Eco-Economy".
