RE: Sustainability - Proposed Policies for Correcting the Human Predicament

 https://theconversation.com/limits-to-growth-policies-to-steer-the-economy-away-from-disaster-57721

The essay at the link above covers the following subjects:
1.  measuring progress,
2.  resource caps,
3.  work and time,
4.  public spending,
5.  banking and finance (and the built-in "growth imperative"),
6.  the population question,
7.  poverty (a rising tide will SINK all boats),
8.  hindrances.
Though the discussion is somewhat brief on each item above, many links to related pages are embedded in the article.

The piece is thought-provoking and, in my view, should be considered by all who are interested in mitigating the current human predicament.
