Dr. Robert Howell - Building a Whole Earth Economy

Dr Robert Howell, CEO of the Council of Socially Responsible Investment in NZ, discusses a bold Quaker initiative for a just and flourishing earth - On Right Relationship, Building A Whole Earth Economy. In 2003, 39 Quakers met in Wallingford Pennsylvania to consider the moral challenge posed by the global economic system and the heedless destruction of the Earth's ecosystems and failing to serve the well being of hundreds of millions of people. Dr. Howell talks of "right relationship", the commonwealth that is life, on fairness and why Ecology needs, in many ways, to set the boundaries for the Economy.
