Condition: Sehr gut. Reissue. 207 Seiten, Tabellen, Gleichungen, Text in englischer Sprache "The Limits to Growth ist ein wegweisender Bericht, der 1972 vom Club of Rome in Auftrag gegeben und von einem Forscherteam am Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) erstellt wurde. Die Autoren untersuchten mithilfe des damals neu entwickelten World3-Computermodells die langfristigen Auswirkungen von fünf zentralen Faktoren: Bevölkerungswachstum, industrielle Produktion, Umweltverschmutzung, Nahrungsmittelproduktion und Verbrauch nicht erneuerbarer Ressourcen. Die Studie simulierte verschiedene Szenarien für die Zukunft der Menschheit bis zum Jahr 2100 und zeigte auf, dass bei unverändertem Wachstum ("Business-as-usual") die planetaren Grenzen überschritten werden könnten, was zu einem drastischen Rückgang von Bevölkerung und industrieller Kapazität führen würde. Gleichzeitig betonten die Autoren, dass durch rechtzeitige politische Maßnahmen und eine Umstellung auf nachhaltige Praktiken ein stabiler Zustand erreicht werden kann, der sowohl ökologische als auch ökonomische Balance ermöglicht. 6700 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 900 8°, Softcover, kartoniert, Maße: 17.78 cm x 2.54 cm x 12.7 cm, Buchdeckel oberer Rand kleiner Riss ohne Textverlust, Papier nachgedunkelt, altersentsprechende Gebrauchsspuren, guter Zustand.
