Boyce on the environment, inequality and the economy, argues that there is not an inexorable trade-off between advancing human well-being and having a clean and safe environment. The goal of economic policy should be to grow the good things that improve our well-being and environmental quality and reduce the bad things that harm humans and nature. To reorient the economy for these ends, we will need to achieve a more egalitarian distribution of wealth and power. Global climate change  the most pressing environmental challenge of our time  adds urgency to this task and creates historic opportunities for moving towards a greener future.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47924870021278,"sku":"ING-9781783088751","price":114.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781783088751.jpg?v=1782954158","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781783088751","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
