Resumo
The purpose of this essay is to reflect on poverty, inequality, growth and sustainability in a context in which these variables influence each other. This paper explores firstly the relationship between wealth and environment and secondly, the income and inequality effects on poverty levels. Moreover, this framework can be associated to a particular geographic context. The first section analyses the issues linking growth and environment by means of the sustainable growth concept. In the second section, the relationship among poverty, growth and inequality, its causes and effects are discussed. The third section illustrates this reflection with an empirical exercise for Spanish regions.
