A Finer Future [PDF ebook] 
Creating an Economy in Service to Life

Supporto

The blueprint for an inspiring regenerative economy that avoids collapse and works for people and the planet.

Humanity is in a race with catastrophe. Is the future one of global warming, 65 million migrants fleeing failed states, soaring inequality, and grid-locked politics? Or one of empowered entrepreneurs and innovators working towards social change, leveling the playing field, and building a world that works for everyone? While the specter of collapse looms large, A Finer Future demonstrates that humanity has a chance – just – to thread the needle of sustainability and build a regenerative economy through a powerful combination of enlightened entrepreneurialism, regenerative economy, technology, and innovative policy.

The authors – world leaders in business, economics, and sustainability – gather the environmental economics evidence, outline the principles of a regenerative economy, and detail a policy roadmap to achieving it, including:


  • Transforming finance and corporations

  • Reimagining energy, agriculture, ecosystems, and the nature of how we work

  • Enhancing human well-being

  • Delivering a world that respects ecosystems and human community.


Charting the course to a regenerative economy is the most important work facing humanity and A Finer Future provides the essential blueprint for business leaders, entrepreneurs, environmentalists, politicians, policymakers, and others working to create a world that works for people and the planet.
