"The environmental movement lives in a state of denial regarding the relationship between economic growth and environmental quality" # QotD


"The environmental movement lives in a state of denial regarding the relationship between economic growth and environmental quality, e.g. per ,'the OECD's Better Life Index correlates with GDP"
~ based on Jim Rose's post 'Richer is greener: environmentalists are Environmental Kuznets Curve deniers'

Environmental quality and the thing being plotted on this graph (Better Life Index) aren't exactly the same thing. You can still have a crap natural environment, but other factors that make your life better outweigh them.
