Dr. Peter Victor, Professor and past-Dean of Environmental Studies at York University, argues that economic growth, the primary global policy objective, is unsustainable. Its long-term viability is increasingly questioned due to environmental impacts, resource scarcity, and its failure to significantly improve happiness, eliminate poverty, or create full employment.

A simulation model of the Canadian economy demonstrates that full employment, poverty eradication, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and fiscal balance are achievable without economic growth. Victor advocates shifting focus from growth to specific objectives directly related to human and planetary well-being.

Ireland's public sector spends €9 billion annually on goods and services, totaling €100 billion over the next decade. This significant public expenditure presents a crucial opportunity to reduce carbon footprint, conserve energy, and boost environmental awareness among citizens.

Dublin fireman Neil McCabe demonstrates how this investment could foster environmentally friendly buildings and generate substantial cost savings. Transitioning to a green, low-carbon economy would not only save money but also create jobs.

The question remains whether local authorities and the government will embrace this vision. This discussion, hosted by Duncan Stewart, was published on Feb 18, 2014.
