On May 29, 1990, Donella Meadows published a text titled “State of the Village Report.”
The text starts off with “If the world were a village of 1000 people:….”
It takes you through a tale of how those 1000 people would be divided up, rich and poor, various nationalities, religion, political power, et cetera.
Ms. Meadows passed away in February of 2000, but her concept is still alive.
Sustainability Institute, through Donella’s Foundation. has released the third version (with updated figures) of her idea.
