The Happy Planet Index
I came across this video the other day, and I was in awe. Suddenly, my desire for economic fairness, environmental sustainability, and my focus on inner happiness and well-being all came together. Nic Marks’s brilliant work is a fine example of hope in the world. He is a practical visionary. I believe the Happy Planet Index is truly where humanity is heading, if we choose to.
I encourage you to watch this inspiring video, even if you don’t have an interest in how gross national product is measured. This is the most comprehensive and thorough research I have seen creating a new way of building a sustainable and joyful world that works for everyone.
