TitleMeasuring our future: the role of sustainability metrics by Richard Darton
Datend
DescriptionPublic Lecture by Richard Darton at the Royal Society
The need to move towards a more sustainable way of life is now widely accepted, but deciding how to bring about this sustainable future world raises the question of measurement.

How much contribution will a particular plan or policy make to sustainable development? Is project X more sustainable that project Y, and is either of them acceptable? This lecture explored the idea of Sustainability Metrics, and shows how they can be used to expose, quantify and clarify the decisions facing us.
