Nine Convictions in an Economy for One Planet


The following Nine Convictions are developed in the Eden Series trilogy I am writing as part of the One Earth Project.
- Earth Community is more than human community.
- The Commons evokes more mature human capacities than do corporate-led markets.
- Commonwealth is richer than private wealth.
- Abundance is richer than prosperity.
- Limits to growth increase innovation and creativity.
- Economic democracy achieves fair distribution more effectively than corporate-led markets.
- Local economies generate life for regions without destroying global connections.
- Wealth is not the same as lots of money.
- Wellbeing and happiness happen through One Earth living, not Multi Earth economics.
