Economics for Equity and the Environment
URL = http://www.e3network.org/
Description
"We write as economists who are troubled by environmental degradation and social injustice, by the wide and growing inequality of wealth and income in America and in the world, and by the harmful impacts of the globalized economy on the natural ecosystems that surround and support human activity. In order to change what is wrong with the economy, we must change what is wrong with economics as it is currently taught and practiced. We are launching a new organization, Economics for Equity and the Environment (E3), to promote a vision of an engaged and realistic economics, in which an understanding of social equity and environmental protection cannot be separated."
