Enough Is Enough: Building a Sustainable Economy in a World of Finite Resources

Itâ€™s time for a new kind of economy

Weâ€™re overusing the earthâ€™s finite resources, and yet excessive consumption is failing to improve our lives. In Enough Is Enough, Rob Dietz and Dan Oâ€™Neill lay out a visionary but realistic alternative to the perpetual pursuit of economic growthâ€”an economy where the goal is not more but enough.

They explore specific strategies to conserve natural resources, stabilize population, reduce inequality, fix the financial system, create jobs, and moreâ€”all with the aim of maximizing long-term well-being instead of short-term profits. Filled with fresh ideas and surprising optimism, Enough Is Enough is the primer for achieving genuine prosperity and a hopeful future for all.

â€œHumans seem to be intent on confirming the argument of biologist Ernst Mayr that higher intelligence may be a lethal mutation. But the grim prognosis is not inevitable. This lucid, informed, and highly constructive book shows that with the will to act, solutions can be found to build a steady-state economy geared to meeting human needs.â€
â€”Noam Chomsky

â€œRob Dietz and Dan Oâ€™Neill bring clarity and style to their impassioned and meticulous analysis, offering the way to a better quality of life and a sustainable future for all.â€
â€”Kate Pickett, Professor of Epidemiology, University of York; cofounder, The Equality Trust; and coauthor of The Spirit Level

â€œDietz and Oâ€™Neill create a remarkable visionâ€”a world with enough prosperity and happiness for everyone, not just for a few. This book will restore your hope in the future and give you specific things you can do to help!â€
â€”Thom Hartmann, internationally syndicated talk show host and author of twenty-four books
