About

Sustainable economics implies development without depleting natural resources or harming the environment. Can economies grow forever or are there limits to growth? Can capitalism handle zero-growth, or should we expect a catastrophic explosion? Will China, India and other developing countries save the world, or destroy it? While environmentalists may be overly concerned with sustainability, capitalists may be far too complacent about the changes ahead.
