MORE NAVIGATION
(1) METRICS FOR A COMPLEX WORLD
SUSTAINABILITY ACCOUNTING
You manage what you measure ... therefore measure what matters. Measure and account for people and planet as well as money and profit.
5) THE MAN BUILT REAL ECONOMY - PHYSICAL ASSETS
MACHINERY, VEHICLES. BUILDINGS, INFRASTRUCTURE Everything that people have devised and built to improve productivity and quality of life
(9) THE PLACE PERSPECTIVE
COMMUNITIES, CITIES, COUNTRIES, ETC.
Think global ... act local ... in a PLACE. Everything happens in a place. Place enables accountability.
(2) THE PEOPLE ECONOMY / HUMAN AND SOCIAL CAPITAL
Happiness and Quality of Life. Measure these and have them important in the metrics.
(6) THE CONSUMPTION ECONOMY
Goods and services that enable quality of life for people, but also deplete resources and degrade the environment
(10) IDEAS and INITIATIVES
Brains produce ideas ... and in turn this enable progress. An idea without investment and organization is interesting but not important.
(3) THE NATURAL ECONOMY / NATURAL CAPITAL
Natural systems, environment, ecosystems, biodiversity, etc. These are the ESSENTIAL foundation for absolutely everything.
(7) THE KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY
Facts, data, information, knowledge, wisdom ... misinformation. Better knowledge can be used for amazing things ... or not!
(11) ISSUES
Possibilities are amazing but PERFORMANCE is abysmal. There are thousasnds of issues ALL of which need attention.
(4) THE FINANCIAL ECONOMY
Money, banking, financial services, financial wealth. Metrics for these are strong, but without people and planet are nothing.
(8) GOVERNANCE / ENABLING ENVIRONMENT
Institutional and policy framework, institutions and enabling environment. In too many cases on constraint on progress.
(12) ABOUT ... THE BURGESS PERSPECTIVE
How various Burgess initiative have been evolving for decades. Many pieces in progress, but not much finished.
