The Global Environment, Natural Resources, and Economic Growth, a new book co-authored by Will Semmler, Professor of Economics at the New School for Social Research, addresses the intersection between economic growth and the global climate crisis. With public attention focused on global warming, the book uses economic theory to analyze global growth, where high economic growth rates imply a fast depletion of renewable and non-renewable resources.  The book questions whether economic growth can continue in the face of these environmental constraints and what institutions are needed to manage increasingly limited resources.
