Something quite exceptional caught my eye. The ONS is beginning a process of data collection, measurement and analysis to help us better understand the changing world we're now living in. This includes measurement of what the natural world provides us in terms of 'ecosystem services'. And its part of a wider remit to examine the wider "Wellbeing and Beyond GDP" agenda. Work has begun to extend the measurement of natural capital "to estimate for the first time how these resources are being depleted". There's some fascinating stuff within in their recent post - this could mean we see resource depletion in a more relevant, updated Net Domestic Product (NPD) calculation rather than simply relying on the (blunt tool of) GDP. There is an NPD measurement, today, but it is essentially just the GDP minus depreciation.) Discussions are happening, now, around 'inclusive wealth' and developing new indicators such as Net Inclusive Income. This matters to all of us because if policymakers (and the media) are presented with a comprehensive understanding from incontrovertible facts then it encourages better, fully informed decision-making. (At least, in theory.) Surely, it becomes much more difficult for them to deny problems and argue against the need for specific and focussed change where change is necessary, doesn't it?

This stunning chart demonstrates why there has been so much disagreement and confusion over how our economy is really doing. The degradation of some of the *most important* economic data we have is alarming. When official data and alternative data disagree, its important to go to the sources. When our official sources are unable to get the same quality of responses, inaccuracies will creep in. But even when data is accurate, doubt can creep in and that may be the most insidious part of how the vibes became so distant from the numbers. We can't keep operating this way.

Great article by The Currency and Stephen Kinsella around the importance of data and how value can be derived from data. The opening paragraph certainly resonated with me - 'Creating data, housing data, manipulating data, deriving value from data - we are moving into an era when economic progress is going to become coincident with data' #data #dataanalytics #economy Spark
"We are moving into an era when economic progress is going to become coincident with data." - this is a great column from Stephen Kinsella. https://lnkd.in/eC9w9gEP
