The Green Economy. A Wide Shot

Description

In this program Hazel Henderson and Los Angeles-based asset manager Gregory Wendt, principal of Stakeholder Capital, talk about the importance of new ways of managing assets based on wider analyses beyond the failed economic and financial models which crashed in 2008. This new view is multi-disciplinary and based on whole systems analyses. Just as asset managers who invested in fossil fuels had to learn principles of geology, and are now learning about agriculture and forestry, they are now required to go beyond these disciplines toward understanding how our whole planet actually functions. Now we must learn Life's Principles and Earth Systems Science, using the many Earth-observing satellites NASA uses to track what humans are actually doing to our planet and all its processes of using the sun's daily flow of free photons which actually power our lives and provide our food and survival.
