Description
Fallacy 12: Prosperity requires economic growth. This podcast episode considers the relationship between economic growth and prosperity. It looks at what we mean by prosperity and whether it is possible to have prosperity without growth. A continuing growth in GDP is no guarantee that the majority of people will enjoy increasing standards of living, but one thing is clear: ever-increasing economic growth is not sustainable on a planet of limited resources. This podcast discusses four possible scenarios as our global economy strives to become sustainable.
