If sustainability is to mean anything at all, say Hamilton, an economist at The World Bank, and Atkinson (environmental policy, London School of Economics and Politics), it needs to be measurable, and current systems of economic indicators do not clearly signal whether an economy is on a sustainable path. They offer a methodology emphasizing the role that savings plays in determining sustainability. It draws on a body of knowledge linking growth theory, asset accounting, and indicators of sustainable development.
