A research project in the Foresight group on something called the "ECCO" model has been running for a number of years now. This model is a radically new look at what makes our economies tick. Its purpose is to provide a framework for checking the physical consistency of future scenarios.
As an introduction to this subject, I've recently completed a 25-minute video called "The story of energy, stuff and the environment" at http://www.driversofchange.com/projects/. Do please take a look at it. I'm really keen to follow up discussions it triggers.
(If the know "The story of stuff" video by Annie Leonard, mine is indeed a play on that title and inspired by the format of Annie's.)
