Economics is the way society manages its house. \u003cbr\u003e The contentions of this book are that the natural world is the best guide to our economic activities, that supply and demand are insufficient determinants, that profit and loss are not alternatives, that wealth cannot be created but can be lost. \u003cbr\u003e Ecological economics is a term that has been coined to encapsulate these ideas. \u003cbr\u003e We can stop throwing away food before and after it gets to the table. \u003cbr\u003e We can learn to deal with our pollution. We can stop wasting our resources. We must look again at our priorities. \u003cbr\u003e We're in a race against time. \u003cbr\u003e Perhaps there's not time enough, but it's in everyone's interest to try. \u003cbr\u003e If we keep our activities on a human scale, maybe the passengers can regain control of the runaway train. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 76\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.18 x 7.48 x 4.72 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 01, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52482219901235,"sku":"9781789630787","price":22.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/ZVZZc2x0ZTU0ZEZpbmNPblptSHdadz09.webp?v=1759737442","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/eco-eco-ecological-economics-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
