Fig. 1: Feasible solutions (areas below the equivalence curves) if the weak sustainability (WS) and a-growth (AG) paradigms are applied for combinations of future technologies (θ) and preferences (η), where θ = 1 depicts current technology and η = 1 depicts the current preference for consumption. | Palgrave Communications

Fig. 1: Feasible solutions (areas below the equivalence curves) if the weak sustainability (WS) and a-growth (AG) paradigms are applied for combinations of future technologies (θ) and preferences (η), where θ = 1 depicts current technology and η = 1 depicts the current preference for consumption.

From: Environmental sustainability is not worth pursuing unless it is achieved for ethical reasons

Fig. 1

WS (yellow) is never feasible, so it is not shown. For AG (blue), the only feasible equivalence curve refers to σ = 1 (the most certain scenario); there are no feasible equivalence curves for σ = 2, 3, and 4.
