Hello HEALers!
Thank you for your responses to the blog survey results that I sent out on Friday. I'm glad to hear that this information has been helpful. On another note, I think you'll enjoy this RSA Short by Dr. Kate Raworth on what our economy should be aimed at. Visit Kate's full lecture on doughnut economics here. She asks, "If you were in charge of a country's economy, what would you try to deliver with it?" Deprivation? Degradation? Inequality? What does growth mean in this context? What is our long view on well-being? Should we be testing how much pressure we can apply to humanity? Critical questions to chew on! Here are a few more interesting tidbits that I'd like to share:
