Costanza on "The Global Recession: an opportunity to create a sustainable and desirable future "

Bob was invited by the Green Party in NZ and here is his talk. Two quotes from his presentation:

“What if the crisis of 2008 represents something much more fundamental than a deep recession? What if it’s telling us that the whole growth model we created over the last 50 years is simply unsustainable economically and ecologically and that 2008 was when we hit the wall — when Mother Nature and the market both said: “No more (The Inflection Is Near? By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN. New York Times, March 7, 2009).”

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the ones most responsive to change”--Charles Darwin
