Living within Limits

from THE CLUB OF ROME PODCAST · host The Club of Rome

The Limits to Growth modeled our planet’s interconnected systems and warned that if growth trends in population, industrialisation, resource use and pollution continued unchanged, we would reach and overshoot the carrying capacity of the Earth in the 21st century. We are now crossing tipping points and overloading our planet. Author Dennis Meadows, economist Jayati Ghosh, activist Luisa Neubauer, and scientist Johan Rockstrom reflect on 50 years since the report.
