An annual GDP growth rate of around three per cent is regarded as the minimum necessary to prevent unemployment from escalating. This book intends to resolve the environment-employment dilemma by suggesting ways and means to achieve low rates of unemployment, or preferably full employment, in the context of a low-growth or steady-state economy. This book reconciles the growing conflict between the ecological sustainability and full employment objectives, discussing and analyzing the impact that achieving ecological sustainability will have on unemployment and the nature of the workplace.
