This crisis is bad but it gives us an opportunity to rethink strategies

The Club of Rome


What do you make of what’s happening in the world’s economy today?

We face three critical issues: climate and environment, poverty and development, and finance and economy. These issues are intimately linked. We cannot try long-term solutions to one while disregarding the others. We cannot just look at the next quarter or next electoral period. We have to have a long-term view and we must respect the complexity of the problem, which is very much interlinked. The Limits to Growth said we could not continuously consume vast amounts of resources forever. It said if we are clever, we’re going to go this way, if we are stupid we are going to go that way.
