Healthy Money Healthy Planet
by Deidre Kent (9781877333293)

Healthy Money, Healthy Planet offers some solutions to a range of environmental and social problems throughout the world. The pressure for continuing economic growth has caused widespread environmental damage from the overuse of natural resources and destruction of habitats. Social problems are created by rapidly increasing debt in the form of mortgages, credit cards and student loans, and concentration of wealth and power. In order to reverse this trend and help to develop more sustainable communities, Healthy Money, Healthy Planet looks at complementary economies and monetary systems which have been tried in various countries, including New Zealand, and suggests how they could be implemented in the future. These include changes to the taxation system, community banking, commercial barter, voucher schemes and currencies with a cirulation incentive.
