这篇关于建立一个环境可持续的新经济的必要性的文章首先指出，目前结构的世界经济的持续扩张将破坏自然经济支持系统，导致经济崩溃。一个生态上可持续的经济体系将尊重自然系统的承载能力，由可再生能源提供动力，并通过回收废物来模仿自然。两个关键步骤将是尽快稳定人口增长和采用太阳能/氢能源供应。在考虑到稳定人口和地球气候的重要性和手段之后，本文提出了利用税收政策来建立环境可持续经济的建议。相反，政府实际上正在补贴许多破坏环境的活动。使用税收政策将利用市场固有的效率，并允许逐步发生变化。文章最后考虑是否存在创造可持续经济的政治意愿。
This essay on the necessity of building a new economy that is environmentally sustainable opens by noting that continued expansion of the world economy as currently structured will destroy natural economic support systems and lead to economic collapse. An ecologically sustainable economic system would respect the carrying capacity of natural systems be powered by renewable energy sources and emulate nature by recycling waste. Two key steps will be stabilizing population growth as soon as possible and adopting a solar/hydrogen energy supply. After considering the importance of and means to stabilize population and earths climate the essay proposes that tax policy be used to build an environmentally sustainable economy. Instead governments are actually subsidizing many environmentally destructive activities. Using tax policy would take advantage of the inherent efficiency of the market and would allow changes to occur incrementally. The essay concludes by considering whether the political will exists to create a sustainable economy.
