Couverture du The Worldwatch Institute The Worldwatch Institute: State of the World 1998 (ePUB)

In this fifteenth edition of State of the World, Lester R. Brown and the Worldwatch research team look at the environmental effects of continuing economic growth as the economy outgrows the earth’s ecosystem. As the global economy has expanded from $5 trillion of output in 1950 to $29 trillion in 1997, its demands have crossed many of the earth’s sustainable yield thresholds.
