Dear Friends,
Herman Edward Daly is an American ecological economist and emeritus professor at the School of Public Policy of University of Maryland.
Daly was Senior Economist in the Environment Department of the World Bank, where he helped to develop policy guidelines related to sustainable development. He was a co-founder and associate editor of the journal, Ecological Economics.
In 1989 Daly and John B. Cobb developed the Index of Sustainable Economic Welfare (ISEW), which they proposed as a more valid measure of socio-economic progress than gross domestic product. During this month, we are giving some of his quotable quotes.
