The numbers may look good, but continued deterioration of the environment is leading us closer to crises; meanwhile, policymakers and the public are basing decisions on dangerously incomplete information. In \u003cb\u003eTaking Nature into Account\u003c\/b\u003e, a number of the world's leading experts make the ethical, historical, economic, and ecological arguments for including environmental factors when measuring fiscal health. Initiated by the Club of Rome (an international group of influential businesspeople, statesmen, and scientists), and written in cooperation with the World Wide Fund for Nature, the report reviews existing methodologies and makes recommendations for adjusting the way we think about and measure the economy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Copernicus\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-07-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387945330\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4612-4246-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 332\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44341228372108,"sku":"9780387945330","price":22.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387945330.jpg?v=1776455621","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780387945330","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
