Host, Simran Sethi
Originally produced as an episode of the television series Ethical Markets in 2005
Most economists use Gross Domestic Product to measure a country's economic health. But some experts in the field of economic development consider GDP calculations to be painfully inadequate. This program explores alternative ways to define national success and productivity using not only monetary parameters but also the safety, happiness, and potential of a country's citizens and the health of its natural environment. A conversation with Interface CEO Ray Anderson sheds light on efforts to reduce the ecological footprint of big corporations, while University of California mathematics professor Ralph Abraham and Wealth of Nature author Robert Nadeau describe the failure of mainstream economics to address quality of life and other human issues.
