Dennis Meadows - Economics and Limits to Growth: What's Sustainable?
Edited on Wed Jan-06-10 11:26 AM by GliderGuider
Here are some salient slides from a presentation by Dennis Meadows (an author of the Limits to Growth study in 1972) to the Population Institute. Basically he says that things are falling apart faster than the 1972 reference scenario predicted, and technology ain't gonna save the day. the only thing worse than predicting a gloomy future is being proven right.
