Here’s an interesting website from the New Economics Foundation, an independent think-tank based in the UK. The group focuses on creating innovative solutions to mainstream thinking on economic, environmental, and social issues. Of particular note is the groups’ report Ghost Town Britain which examines the social and economic impacts of the steady decline of neighbourhood shops throughout the UK. Big-box America has a partner! The group not only studies the impacts of such trends but provides concrete recommendations on how best to address them. Other research topics include climate change, transforming markets, and international debt reduction.
