Sustainability 2020: Shaping the Future by Will Steffen
We have come to a critical point in history. The next ten years will
decide if our society can transform into a sustainable one, or if it
will follow the way of the Roman and Mayan civilizations, and simply
collapse. Will Steffen, Director of the Fenner School of Environment and
Society, is optimistic.

this world?"

Prosperity without Growth 2 of 2 by Tim Jackson
Is our economy fit for purpose in a low carbon world? Can economic
growth deliver us from the threat of catastrophic climate change, or is
it the engine thats driving us relentlessly towards it?
Speaking today at a high-level debate in central London to mark the publication of his controversial new book Prosperity without Growth, Tim Jackson argues that building a new economic model fit for a low carbon world is the most urgent task of our times.
The current model isnt working, says Prof Jackson, a top sustainability adviser to the UKs four governments. Instead of delivering widespread prosperity, our economies are undermining wellbeing in the richest nations and failing those in the poorest. The prevailing system has already led us to the brink of economic collapse and if left unchecked it threatens a climate catastrophe.
Prosperity without Growth substantially updates Jacksons groundbreaking report for the Sustainable Development Commission. Launched earlier this year to great acclaim, the report rapidly became the most downloaded document in the Commissions nine year history and in recent weeks has contributed to a burgeoning debate about economic growth and its consequences for people and planet.

Sustainability and Externalizing Costs by John Fullerton
Sustainability - John Fullerton of the Capital Institute talks about his
journey from Wall Street to being a sustainability advocate. An early
influence in his understanding of the sustainability crisis was the work
of Herman Daly's book, For the Common Good: Redirecting the Economy
toward Community, the Environment, and a Sustainable Future. John
discusses "externalities" and the unsustainable practice of
externalizing costs and risks, both social and environmental. The most
dramatic and recent example of this practice is the BP oil spill.
John Fullerton was interviewed by Ruth Ann Barrett of EarthSayers.tv, the voices of sustainability in San Francisco, California on October 7, 2010.

Jobs in a Schrinking Economy by Peter Victor
Dr. Peter Victor, Professor and past-Dean of Environmental Studies at York University is interviewed at the International DeGrowth Conference in Barcelona. We do not have to rely on economic growth. His numbers suggest that yes it can be quite feasible to live good lives. This conference is talking about not just stabilizing the economy, but schrinking it. Harder, but possible, and more dramatic changes may be required. International Degrowth Conference in Barcelona (25-29th March 2010) A longer, more in-depth speech by Dr. Victor is on EarthSayers.tv.

Sustainability: Toronto. July 2, 2010. Yes it's possible says Dr. Peter Victor, Professor and past-Dean of Environmental Studies at York University. Economic growth is the over-arching policy
objective of governments worldwide. Yet its long-term viability is
increasingly questioned because of environmental impacts and impending
and actual shortages of energy and material resources. Furthermore,
rising incomes in rich countries bear little relation to gains in
happiness and well-being . Growth has not eliminated poverty, brought
full employment or protected the environment. Results from a simulation
model of the Canadian economy suggest that it is possible to have full
employment, eradicate poverty, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
maintain fiscal balance without economic growth. It's time to turn our
attention away from pursuing growth and towards specific objectives more
directly relating to our well-being and that of the planet.

The Right Thing To Do by William Rees
EarthSayer William ReesUBC Professor William Rees argues that climate change is the largest collective threat humankind has ever faced as we are now a global culture. Individual choices to reduce their eco-footprint will not have a huge effect. Sustainability is not about acting alone, but is a collective enterprise so we must make our cities so it is possible for our citizens to live a sustainable life. We are all on the Titanic together.
