Abstract

In this chapter we introduce the topics and the goals of the book. We present the problem of environmental sustainability of the current economic production system and consumption of goods starting from one of the first approach attempts through dynamical systems proposed by J.W. Forrester. It shows how concern for the Earth system was already important in the late ’60s. Finally, it outlines the work plan in view of the deepening of a measure of adaptation-mitigation as the Climate Finance.

Dynamic models do not make forecasts in the common sense of the term. They once built and tested the model, show future trends of variables involved in the hypothesis that the structure of the model remains unchanged over time. The model can also consider the possibility of including exogenous factors but its structure should not change.
