A healthy economy depends upon a healthy environment. An unhealthy economy is unhealthy for the environment. The transformation of living nature into dead commodities and pollution is what is killing both. A broader, global reorientation of the paradigm for achieving economic well-being and the common welfare is required which will break with the high-growth, high-consumption model in favour of a low-consumption, low-growth but advanced technology, high-equity development model that results in an improvement in people's welfare, a better quality of life for all, greater democratic control of production and enhanced ecological equilibrium.
