Author(s): Ken Rose, Paul R. Ehrlich
Ken Rose host of the radio show What Now on KOWS radio Occidental interviews Paul Ehrlich about the issues involved with a sustainable future, mainly the lack of empathy and foresight most people have. Highly recommended for those less familiar with MAHB’s goals.
Ehrlich talks about the massive rescaling effort that must occur for us to have a sustainable future. Specifically the fact that we cannot have infinite growth, and that unrestrained markets cannot plan for the future adequately. Additionally, he touches on income inequality and why it is prudent that we live in a more equatable world in many regards if we wish to have a sustainable future.
