Human well-being under impact of human care for nature: happy planet index [Elektronski vir]
Šarotar Žižek, Simona ; Mulej, Matjaž ; Potočnik, Amna
Humans are multilayered entities. Well-being as a complex construct is more than the absence of illness or pathology. Well-being has subjective and objective dimensions. It can be measured at the ...level of individuals, or organizations, or society and it accounts for elements of life satisfaction that cannot be defined, explained or primarily influenced by economic growth. Measures can be used for raising the awareness and resulting action of raising well-being. Many studies indicated significant life benefits for people with high subjective well-being. Thus, the interventions to increase subjective well-being are important, not only because people feel good about themselves; they have more positive work behavior and exhibit other desirable characteristics. The environmental conditions have direct impact on quality of human life and on their actual choices (where to live, work), they affect human health and wealth (through climatic variations, natural disasters). Research and measurement of environmental conditions leave some question open: are we asking the right questions, by linking quality of life measurement with the impacts of and on the environment? Shall we count the polluters (only) or also the people exposed to the pollution, the health impacts of it and consequently the impact on public spending (by assuring the basic medical treatment, general health insurance etc)? The answer is complex, but solution is closer, if we keep in mind, that there is only one interconnected story of Earth and its inhabitants and theirs well-being. Happy Planet Index can help us understand this, if it matches the Law of Requisite Holism.
