The Complementary aspects to Permaculture: Ecological Economics

As per the only other one present in yesterday's meeting (Cameron), I am going to discuss the steady state economy which is detailed in this link:

I suggest that you copy and paste it into a word file for easy perusal,etc.

By the way, The Oil Drum has excellent articles about energy, etc.

    Just for starters. The automaticearth blog is an off shoot from theoildrum.

    Modern Economics puts a scientific mask on, but is really a form of top down political control via the "means of production". Capitalism really isn't much different than Socialism; the difference being labels such as "private" or "public" ownership, or control by a few within a societal hierarchy.

    I had a nice discussion about how the economists are consistently missing the ball by not taking in account the harm done to the Biosphere. Furthermore, I was asked bout marginal utility and I described it as how valuable an extra good is. For example, if you are hungry, an apple is worth 1$. The second one 50 cents, etc, and the 10th one may well have a negative value due to indigestion! Like the cliche, too much of a good thing is bad for you!
