People do funny things with measurement. Here's a measure described in a recent New York Times article:
"The “happy planet index,” [is] devised by the New Economics Foundation, a liberal think tank. This combines happiness and longevity but adjusts for environmental impact — such as the carbon that countries spew."
That's right.. how happy you are, how long you'll live, and how much carbon-based pollution is produced by your country.
What's the overriding them here? Things I like? Life, happiness, and clean air. I say they add a fourth variable for quality of college basketball.
