Passcode: 278756

Summary: 

Economic growth requires ever expanding materials and energy throughput that is unsustainable, and at odds with planetary biophysical limits. Dave will describe the aim of CASSE’s Keep Our Counties Great initiative, and how local communities can opt out of the growth paradigm. A key blueprint for communities is their Comprehensive Plan that is the means to incorporate protection of a county’s biocapacity –  its ecological productivity –  including the ecological services needed for human sustenance.
