New research reports that a correlation between income and life satisfaction is not universal and does not hold in many indigenous and local communities with high levels of life satisfaction but modest income. It is not clear whether this is due to family/social structures, spirituality, connections to nature, or due to other reasons. However, it may help everybody to lead more satisfying lives without ever increasing consumption of natural resources.
