Unpredicted by economists of the last century, the drive of governments to increase GDP without consideration of the planet or future generations has resulted in climate change. As explored in this video, this predicament has led some economists to call for an overhaul to macroeconomics, with intergenerational equity an essential objective. Complemented by illustrative graphics and diagrams, this is important viewing for students of Economics. Show Less
