LABOR … because of improved labor productivity, more production is possible with less labor, and with less labor the role of labor in delivering quality of life and standard of living is diminished.
With more productivity PEOPLE should be havinga better quality of life than ever before.
This will only happen when the 'business model'has people at the center and not profit.
See the Johnson and Johnson business 'credo'

CONSUMPTION … poor people move up the socio-economic ladder when they are able to earn enough to buy things and consume more.

CONSUMPTION … poor people move up the socio-economic ladder when they are able to earn enough to buy things and consume more.
There is a point where more consumption has relatively little impact on quality of life.
There is more and more consumption, not because it is needed to improve quality of life but because the dominant corporate business model is based on more and more sales to produce more and more profit.

Whether or not this improves quality of life is of no concern to most business organizations and investors.

ECOLOGICAL SERVICES … the things that go on in nature that are absolutely vital to the survival of living things on this planet.
Without these, life would disappear.
These services are under stress. The environment is in the process of changing far faster than at any time in history … geological history, that is.
These services are ignored in conventional metrics, both financial and economic. They must be taken into account.
