Useful framing beyond GDP metrics. The Costa Rica example is telling, higher life expectancy than the US despite way lower income cuts through alot of assumptions about wealth equaling wellbeing. Would be interesting to see how these metrics track with cultural values over time, like whether external environmental direction actually predicts conservation outcomes or if its correlation.
There is an observable correlation, which I suggest in this article series. Would scientific rigor indicate causation? I'll leave that to someone with more time.
