Dasgupta's objective

Dasgupta's objective is a way of thinking about solving problems. It tries to make sure that solutions to problems create a better world for everyone, not just for certain people or groups. To do this, Dasgupta's objective looks at the different ways a problem could be solved, and tries to decide which one will lead to the best outcome for everyone. This includes thinking about how the environment and society will be impacted, not just the economy.
