Conclusions about limits to growth less than comforting

T

he 1972 book, Limits to Growth, is the best-selling environmental book of all time, and deservedly so.

Dr Graham Turner.

The scientist who has done the most work updating the data underpinning the original Limits to Growth analysis, Dr Graham Turner, is a thoughtful interview subject.

Jordan Osmond, who conducted the interview said the Dr Turner’s conclusions are not always comforting, but surely it’s better, Mr Osmond said,  to have a clear grasp of the situation than sleepwalk over the edge.

“Only then can we be in a position to formulate appropriate responses. I highly recommend spending the time listening to Graham’s thoughtful analysis of the current state of the world. There is no better authority in the world on this important subject.’ Mr Osmond said.
