How on Earth? Flourishing in a Not-for-Profit World by 2050

Imagine a world where you know, regardless of the nature of your work, that your efforts provide you with a livelihood that contributes to the well-being of others - your family, your friends, and society as a whole - in a way that respects the ecological limits of the planet.

Welcome to the not-for-profit world, where business can still make money, but profits - that is money beyond what it takes to keep a business running - are always reinvested for social or organizational benefit, rather than being accumulated privately by individuals.

The Post Growth Institute’s book, How on Earth? Flourishing in a Not-for-Profit World by 2050, will be the world’s first book to explore the prospect of not-for-profit enterprise becoming the central model of local, national and international business, by 2050. It will also outline practical steps that you, yes you, can take to fast-track this evolution to a sustainable economy.

So what are you waiting for? Pre-order the book already!

Please note that we anticipate publishing "How on Earth" in April of 2014. Thank you for your support and patience in joining us on this journey to a better future!
