(see PB104-106) Equity & social justiceĮC202 To achieve an equitable distribution of resources, wealth, opportunity and power which ensures access for all to the means of sustenance and of personal and social development. Objectives Ecological sustainabilityĮC200 To conserve natural planetary resources and to maintain the integrity of natural life-sustaining cycles to regenerate areas made waste and take steps to avoid further ecological disaster to reduce demand for energy and raw materials to favour low energy non-polluting processes based on renewable resources.ĮC201 To this end, Universal Basic Income (see EC730) will allow the current dependence on economic growth to cease, and allow zero or negative growth to be feasible without individual hardship should this be necessary on the grounds of sustainability. Major changes are required in other policy areas to dismantle the political, cultural and economic power structures which presently work against the green objectives stated above. They are not sufficient in themselves to achieve a green society. Green economic policy must therefore promote the emergence of an economic system which recognises the limits of, and is compatible with, both the natural systems of the planet and the aspirations of the whole of humanity.ĮC101 To achieve global ecological sustainability, with equity and social justice, the industrialised countries must actively reduce the physical burden they place on the planet and must, by example, encourage and support the less industrialised countries in adopting appropriate development strategies.ĮC110 The objectives outlined below are valid at all levels of human activity – personal, household, local, regional, national, and global.ĮC111 The policies given below are stated in general terms only.

Continually increasing resource extraction, industrial throughput and waste production is entirely incompatible with ecological sustainability. Last amendment Spring 2023 (Land Use changes )ĮC100 All human economic activity and social and cultural wellbeing are dependent upon the integrity of self-sustaining, self-managing natural systems.
