For some time, the Donella Meadows Project was involved in helping a New Economy take shape—one that ensures the health of our ecosystems, values the needs of our communities, and provides for people’s wellbeing.
Vermont’s New Economy: A look at the New Economy by the numbers
In 2013 we published a booklet on the emergence of the New Economy in our home base of Vermont, USA. Vermont’s New Economy focuses on both numbers and stories from across the state. The numbers provide a snapshot of how Vermont was doing then, while the stories that accompany them illustrate some of the innovative approaches explored in the state. Through these numbers and stories, we intended to provide a “sense of the possible” in designing strong and sustainable economies.

NOTE: The print version of this publication contained a misprint on the “Vermont’s Natural Assets” page. The 15% statistic is incorrect and should instead read “Vermont land that will likely remain undeveloped as a result of tax incentives: 38%.”
