Gross National Happiness:
Towards a holistic approach to development
(http://www.2apr.gov.bt/images/stories/coredoc/vitallink.pdf)
Sustainability is the essential basis and pre-condition of such a sane economic system.
But an economy exists not for mere survival but to provide the enabling conditions for human happiness and the well-being of all life forms.
The new economy will be an economy based on a genuine vision of life’s ultimate meaning and purpose - an economy that does not cut us off from nature and community but fosters true human potential, fulfillment, and happiness.
This is a beautiful description of the "why" of sustainability.
