More Support for a "Green" GDP

Two weeks ago, I highlighted an article from the Wall Street Journal that talked about how the leaders of China want to measure their growth more accurately by taking into consideration the pollution that is added to their air and the problems the pollution causes. They've been working on using a "Green" GDP.

I wanted to post this article, which appeared in a Fortune magazine a few weeks ago.My schedule at school has me behind in my issues of Fortune, so you'll have to excuse the fact that it is not the most current issue. The article gives support for a "Green" GDP, this time by Joseph Stiglitz, a Nobel Prize-winning economist.
