Summary:
The book explores the concept of an economy that respects the planet's ecological limits and prioritizes sustainability, advocating for a shift from a growth-centric model to one that fosters equitable relationships among humans and between humans and the Earth. It presents a framework for a "whole Earth economy" based on principles of ecological integrity, fairness, and the need to redefine progress beyond mere economic expansion.
Key points:
1. Right Relationship: Live and organize society to honor Earth's ecosystems and ensure all beings can access its resources. This idea comes from the Quaker tradition of harmony and fairness, which should also apply to nature. Our current economy doesn't align with this, causing environmental and social issues.
