Well-being and a sustainable economy

Can well-being be created on the basis of an economy that is not sustainable? Of course it cannot. The economy must not be built on shaky ground. This is a simple fact. How could there ever be disagreement on this? Easily.

As long as there are different views of what sustainability is, there will be more than one way of looking at the sustainable economy.

The current unsustainable development is likely to continue so long as the parties to the discussion keep talking past each other. Based on various grounds, opinions about what “sustainability” is will vary. Unless this is understood, the current prerequisites for building a sustainable economy will not be enhanced in the future.
