Abstract
:
Goodall argues that building a sustainable society is the greatest challenge that the world has ever faces. The high living standards of current generations have been partly achieved by borrowing from the future and ignoring the impacts on the people yet to come. He suggests that economic growth will help us build a more sustainable world.
