The complete text of the original Limits to Growth study is now accessible online for free, thanks to a partnership between the Dartmouth College Library, Dennis Meadows, and the Sustainability Institute. Published in 1972, the study modeled the dynamics of our human presence on the planet and found that a “business as usual” growth model would likely lead to environmental and economic collapse within a century. The study sparked controversy at the time, but its discoveries have since been supported by patterns of growth, environmental health, and resource use. The digitized version includes all original figures and is available in different formats, including PDF and HTML.
