Fascinating stuff, Mike. You've offered up a good high-altitude look at of what has to happen to get the global economy lined up with our natural systems and move forward to greater sustainability. If you and others can motivate enough folks, we can all get to work on fleshing out the details and making it all happen. Keep going...!
Great summary, Mike. ... capitalism, growth economics, and disruptive technology have manifested in the absence of ecological wisdom -- that is so very true ... unfortunately
Have you read Happy City by Charles Montgomery? He talks a lot about the type of things in your appendix. He also focuses on what in urban and suburban design make people happier, the fact that those things end up being much better for the planet are a convenient byproduct.
