When we talk of economic progress, the spotlight falls on the growth rate as measured by our GDP. Professor Janakarajan argues that there is a major problem with this. We are masking an impending disaster, and completely misunderstanding quality of life. What if our 'growth' is actually negative? What does our increasing GDP look like when we start accounting for the loss to our environment? What value would you put to the complete decimation of a Kaveri or Ganga? Professor Janakarajan challenges you to expand your understanding of growth and progress, and throws a serious warning.
