“Come On” – Capitalism, Short-termism, Population and the Destruction of the Planet – We are pleased to announce that “Come On” – the new report to the Club of Rome – co-authored by the two of us and with contributions from more than 30 members of the Club – is now available. Springer Nature (New York) is the publisher. The book is prepared for the 50th Anniversary in 2018 of the Club of Rome. It is a follow-up to the Club of Rome’s landmark report “The Limits to Growth”, that was published in 1972 and sold more than thirty million copies.

“Come On” has three Parts:

1. Present trends are not sustainable. They will render the Full World dangerously vulnerable.

2. Our economic growth paradigm must be overhauled. We are in need of a New Enlightenment for the Full World.

Balance stands at the core of the New Enlightenment. Balance between humans and nature, between short and long term, between market forces and the rule setting state, between private consumption and public goods, between justice and rewards for excellence, between speed and stability.

3. But we have to urgently act now! These chapters are full of optimism, showing a great number of technologies and different ways to organise things that could be done within the present system and would move the world towards sustainability. We suggest policy measures aiming at bringing the positive examples into the mainstream. One basic rule is to tax the consumption of scarce natural goods and to lower tax on labour. Also some novel considerations are offered for global governance and how to rein in financial markets.
