Description

The economic operating system has reached a critical point. Five decades after The Limits to Growth highlighted the risks of unchecked growth, humanity now faces a cliff edge: Earth has crossed multiple planetary boundaries, and widespread inequality is causing deep instabilities in societies. A new report offers a powerful antidote to despair and a roadmap to a better future. Using state-of-the-art computer modeling, a group of leading scientists and economists present five extraordinary turnarounds to achieve prosperity for all within planetary limits in a single generation. The report outlines two alternative scenarios - Too-Little-Too-Late vs The Giant Leap - and five system-shifting steps that can upend poverty and inequality by 2050. This survival guide for humanity provides a clear pathway to reboot our global economic system, one that works for all people and the planet. Written in an accessible style with high impact visuals, it is required reading for anyone concerned about living well on a fragile planet.
