This conference on November 9-10 will focus on the challenges of maintaining economic progress, and improvements in human welfare, while remaining within environmental boundaries that will sustain those improvements. The first day “The Future of Growth in the Climate Transition” will explore questions on environmentally sustainable economic growth, from climate justice and poverty reduction to energy markets and the relationship between economic and climate models. The second day will commemorate the 50th anniversary of Nordhaus and Tobin’s classic paper, “Is Growth Obsolete?” and examine the linkage between the environment and economic growth and the opportunities and implication of including the environment in systems of economic measurement.
