Human and nature dynamics (HANDY): Modeling inequality and use of resources in the collapse or sustainability of societies | Model |
HANDY is a 4-variable thought-experiment model for interaction of humans and nature. The focus is on predicting long-term behavior rather than short-term forecasting. Carrying Capacity is developed as a practical measure for forecasting collapses. A sustainable steady state is shown to be possible in different types of societies but over-exploitation of either Labor or Nature results in a societal collapse. | 09 Oct 2016 |
