For more than twenty years, he has worked internationally on sustainable consumption and production. During five years at the Stockholm Environment Institute in the early 1990s, he pioneered the concept of preventative environmental management outlined in his 1996 book Material Concerns – pollution profit and quality of life. For the last decade his research has focused on consumption, lifestyle and sustainability. In 2005, the Sustainable Development Research Network published his widely cited review Motivating Sustainable Consumption. A respective Earthscan 'Reader' in Sustainable Consumption was issued in 2006. During 2006 and 2007 Tim Jackson was advisor and a regular contributor to BBC Newsnight's Ethical Man series.

All puppies and the mother were rescued from our shelter. And yes, there is a gun in the background, but it is a tranquilizer gun.(used for extreme cases. Only used 3 times last year.) All animals are now in homes getting fed every day. The truck is ventilated and has heat and ac. All puppies were fine and were on the truck for less than 30 minutes before being reunited with the mother.

So much of the analysis of how we respond to climate change assumes that economic growth and emissions reduction are compatible goals. But is this wishful thinking? To question maximising economic growth as an organising principle of society seems close to economic heresy. Enter Tim Jackson, a professor of Sustainable Development and author of the book, "Prosperity Without Growth". He argues it's time to re-think the very notion of growth and what it means to be genuinely prosperous. Jackson is speaking as part of the 2010 Alfred Deakin Lecture series, "Brave New World?". Curated by Tim Flannery, the 2010 Deakins presents the climate change challenge from ten different perspectives, with a focus on ten different spheres of life. Are we, the series asks, willing to take the hard perso...
It’s a combination of ecological, social and indeed economic and financial reasons why we have to end up looking at shifting that model of how we understand the economy. We need a transformation. We need to go through the economic fundamentals - enterprise, investment, work, the money system itself and to systemically identify actually what needs to happen to each of those elements to transform this model itself. Tim Jackson directs the research group „Centre for Understanding of Sustainable Prosperity".

The 2007-2008 financial crisis, you might think, was an unpredictable one-time crash. But Didier Sornette and his Financial Crisis Observatory have plotted a set of early warning signs for unstable, growing systems, tracking the moment when any bubble is about to pop.

Economic growth is the defining challenge of our time; without it, political and social instability rises, human progress stagnates and societies grow dimmer. But, says economist Dambisa Moyo, dogmatic capitalism isn't creating the growth we need. As she shows, in both state-sponsored and market-driven models, capitalism is failing to solve social ills, fostering corruption and creating income inequality. Moyo surveys the current economic landscape and suggests that we have to start thinking about capitalism as a spectrum so we can blend the best of different models together to foster growth.

Futurist Edie Weiner examines the accelerated speed of change and how that has ushered us into the "Emotile Economy" . She astutely illustrates that we are not in a recession, rather a fundamental transformation comprised of eight key "spaces". In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

How can businesses in the 21st century continue to grow while delivering an absolute reduction in their environmental impact? This was the question posed at a recent RSA and Pepsico roundtable to discuss the challenges of de-coupling economic growth from increased carbon emissions, and to explore solutions. Download the roundtable report (PDF, 2MB). The event included provocations from Stephanie Draper, a Director at Forum for the Future who shared progress to date, giving examples of organisations who are achieving absolute reductions in their environmental impact and from Professor Tim Jackson of the Sustainable Development Commission on the limitations of decoupling and the need for a new model of ecological enterprise. Drawing from his detailed report Prosperity Without Growth,...

'Prosperity without Growth': a lecture by Tim Jackson, special guest at Triodos Day, 13 October 2013, Brussels.
When Prosperity without Growth was first published seven years ago, it quickly became a landmark in the sustainability debate. Tim Jackson’s piercing challenge to conventional economics openly questioned the most highly prized goal of politicians and economists alike: the continued pursuit of exponential economic growth. Its findings provoked controversy, inspired debate and led to a new wave of research building on its arguments and conclusions. This substantially revised and re-written edition updates those arguments and considerably expands upon them. Jackson demonstrates that building a ‘post-growth’ economy is a precise, definable and meaningful task. Starting from clear first principles, he sets out the dimensions of that task: the nature of enterprise; the quality of our working li...
Die ökonomischen und ökologischen Grundlagen eines Wohlstands für alle Menschen sind in Gefahr und die Kluft zwischen Arm und Reich wird immer größer. Grüne Ökonomie will ein neues Leitbild für den Ausweg aus den ökologischen und sozialen Krisen sein und verspricht die Versöhnung von Ökonomie und Ökologie. Sie bedient die Hoffnung, unser hohes Wohlstandsniveau halten zu können. Doch die Grüne Ökonomie ist Hoffnung und Streitfall zugleich: Denn die Suche nach Wirtschafts- und Gesellschaftsmodellen, die einerseits die Grenzen des Planeten respektieren und andererseits Gerechtigkeit und eine lebenswerte Zukunft für alle Menschen bedeuten, muss weit über die vorliegenden Konzepte der grünen Ökonomie hinausgehen.

Tim Jackson defensa el seu plantejament econòmic que pot permetre la transició cap a un model de societat més sostenible. Entre les seves propostes destaquen la necessitat d'augmentar les inversions ambientals i desplaçar l'èmfasi de la despesa privada a la despesa pública, establint a més, restriccions pel que fa al consum de recursos. El conferenciant és professor de desenvolupament sostenible a la Universitat de Surrey, director del Grup d'Investigacions sobre Estils de Vida, Valors i Medi Ambient (RESOLVE). L'acte coincideix amb la presentació del prestigiós llibre: "Prosperitat sense creixement: economia per a un planeta finit" (Icaria Editorial / Intermón Oxfam).

Als Tim Jacksons Buch "Wohlstand ohne Wachstum" vor sieben Jahren erstmals erschien, entwickelte es sich schnell zum Standardwerk, zur »Bibel der Wachstumskritik«. Die brisante Diagnose des renommierten britischen Ökonomen lautete damals: »Unsere gesamte Wirtschaftsordnung baut auf ewigem Wachstum auf – aber nun brauchen wir einen anderen Motor« – und daran hat sich auch heute nichts geändert. So kommt die komplett überarbeitete und deutlich erweiterte Neuauflage des Buches gerade recht. Das Buch bietet auch eine aktuelle wie fundierte Analyse der Auswirkungen der Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrisen und des ungebrochenen Strebens nach Wachstum, legt den Fokus auf die ganze Welt und schildert die Chancen und Herausforderungen einer Postwachstumsgesellschaft, welche die ökologischen Grenzen unser...
