Limits to Growth: Charting the Next 50 Years
with Sandrine Dixson-Declève
October 8, 2024
50 Years ago in a report to the Club of Rome, Limits to Growth warned that exponential population and industrial economic expansion were driving humanity towards crisis – or a cliff. Sitting here today in what we now call the polycrisis, Limits to Growth has proven to be frightfully prescient. And yet, our collective response remains woefully inadequate in pace and scope.
In this episode, John Fullerton welcomes Sandrine Dixson-Declève, Co-President of the Club of Rome, for an inspiring dialogue on the failures and future of global leadership, and how we can achieve prosperity within planetary limits.
