Integrated CLD of the Auckland Region Created by Hendrik Stouten Ecological Economics Research New Zealand
Population + Relative attractiveness Auckland Region R1 + + Residential Growth Housing A first loop that can be identified in the Auckland Region is related to housing. It captures a reinforcing residential growth loop indicating that more (less) housing leads to a more (less) attractive region and therefore to more (less) people requesting more (less) housing.
Population + Relative attractiveness Auckland Region R1 + + Residential Growth + Housing Economic Growth + R2 Economic Activity (GDP) A second loop is an economic growth loop. It is an reinforcing loop that assumes that more (less) economic activity in the region will increase (decrease) its attractiveness resulting in more (less) people entering the region.
Population + Relative attractiveness Auckland Region R1 + + + Residential Growth + Housing Well-being (GPI) Economic Growth + R3 + R2 Economic Activity (GDP) Well-being Drives Growth Economic activity also creates well-being. More well-being makes a region more attractive. Hence, another reinforcing loop is established.
Well-being Saves Lives + Population + R4 Relative attractiveness Auckland Region R1 + + + Residential Growth + Housing Well-being (GPI) Economic Growth + R3 + R2 Well-being does not only affect the population through the attractiveness of the region. It also directly impacts population as higher (lower) degrees of well-being results in more (less) people staying alive. Wellness saves lives and therefore contributes to growth. Economic Activity (GDP) Well-being Drives Growth
Well-being Saves Lives + Population + R4 Relative attractiveness Auckland Region R1 + + + Residential Growth + Housing Well-being (GPI) Economic Growth + + R3 + R2 Economic Activity (GDP) Well-being Drives Growth Education Drives Well-being R5 Employment Next, education is an important factor influencing the attractiveness of a region. Education results in skills and this positively affects employment. Employment in turn results in well-being that feeds into attractiveness. Education is therefore an important driver for growth in a region. + Skills + + Education

It is assumed that more (less) education directly results in more (less) well-being.

Education contributes to improved health in the region.

This in turn also increases access to education, health and economic activities. Growth Through Health Access

However, nothing can grow forever. Hence, balancing loops need to be identified. A first balancing loop relates economic activity to natural capital as natural capital puts limits to economic activities.

Well-being Saves Lives Natural Capital also limits well-being as more (less) health leads to more (less) people and therefore more (less) economic activity resulting in less (more) natural capital and less (more) health. + Population + R4 Relative attractiveness Auckland Region R1 + + + + Residential Growth + Transport Infrastructure (Public and Private) Housing Well-being (GPI) R14 Economic Growth + + + + R3 + Growth Through Access by Active Mode R2 B2 Economic Activity (GDP) Well-being Drives Growth Natural Limits To Wellness Caused by Growth Affecting Health + + + + + B1 R10 Active Mode Infrastructure Education Drives Well-being Natural limits to Economic Growth Health Through Housing - Innovation R5 R6 Natural Capital + Improving Workforce through Education + Health Employment + + + + + R13 Growth Through Access to Economic Activities by Public and Private transport R7 R9 Skills + Education Contributes to Improved Health Innovation Drives Economic Growth R8 Education Improves Well-being R15 R12 + + Being Active is Healthy and Drives Growth Growth Through Access to Education Education + + Accessibility R11 Growth Through Health Access

As public and private transport infrastructure increases (decreases) so does impervious area. This will negatively (positively) affect natural capital and therefore reduce (increase) well-being through reducing (increasing) health.

More (less) emissions result in lesser (more) health and therefore reduces (increases) well-being. Hence, emissions therefore mainly limits the growth loops due to reduced health and therefore well-being.
