THE CLUB OF ROME PODCAST

Limits and Beyond

All speakers in this event are coauthors of the book Limits and Beyond. They share their reflections on the relevance of the seminal report The Limits to Growth for the world of today and tomorrow.
Looking back five decades later, what did the book mean at the time, what happened next, what did we do and not do, what did we learn and not learn, and what happens now and in the future?

Earth for All: A Survival Guide for Humanity

50 years after the groundbreaking The Limits to Growth report, a new book Earth For All details five turnarounds that are the minimum requirements for our societies to build economies that support wellbeing for all, whilst protecting the planet.  The project brings together scientists and economists to show that it is possible to upgrade our economics and transform our societies with immediate, focused large-scale investment.
Philippa Nuttall is joined by some of the authors of the book: Sandrine Dixson-Declève, Co-President of the Club of Rome, Jayati Ghosh, an internationally recognized development economist and professor at the University of Massachusetts and Jorgen Randers, professor emeritus of climate strategy at the BI Norwegian Business School.
This special edition of World Review was first published by The New Statesman with support from the Club of Rome and Earth4All.
 

Living within Limits

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.

The Limits to Growth, 50 years later with Jorgen Randers

Earth For All is an update to the landmark 1972 book - The Limits to Growth - that warned of our unsustainable growth. Jorgen Randers, Club of Rome member and author of both titles, tells Eco-Business what is at stake if we don't fix our broken economic system.
