@sz_duras largely due to 'no evidence supporting the premise, no argument'.

@sz_duras thank you for acknowledging that Malthusian theory is not applicable to #Degrowth or #Limitstogrowth analysis.

This past week I attended and spoke at the United States Society for Ecological Economics Biennial Conference. The conference was held at Oberlin College just outside the best city in the world (Cleveland, Ohio). The Degrowth Institute hosted a one-day Degrowth assembly on the first day of the conference (June 18th) to help kick off the proceedings with a degrowth message.

Degrowth is the Answer
The number of #degrowth #limitstogrowth supporters who wish to edit the political history of the post growth line is surprisingly high... the obvious exclusion of Malthus... the person is one thing, the tools we can extract from the toolbox is another thng entirely... Why deny the history? rather than identify what is usable and what isn't?

@BlumeEvolution @haiku_shelf Das Problem ist das sich #degrowth nicht, bei unserer Presselandschaft vermarkten lässt, auch wenn es Sinnvoll wäre.
Ein weiterer Punkt ist das derzeitige sozoioökonomische Umfeld was Kinder mehr zu einen Risiko als alles andere macht. Aus diesem Winkel wäre es interessant auf Religionen zu guggen. Oder ob es eher ein Zeichen #patrichialer Unterdrückung ist. Gerade bei Freikirchen ist das inklusive Kindesmissbrauch gut belegt.

Hello la team #cestlété #degrowth #canicule #decroissance #lowtech

Je vois beaucoup de gens qui essaient de se protéger de la chaleur du soleil en fermant les rideaux.
Une fois que les rayons du soleil touchent vos vitres, se produit l'effet loupe et la chaleur s'accumule dans l'air.

Interesting theory... It doesn't call for #Degrowth, but it does call for not buying as much stuff and #TaxingTheRich!

‘An equal and habitable world is possible’: academics set out sweeping vision for planetary survival

Global report provides an alternative to climate breakdown, political extremism and economic tensions

Excerpt: "[The plan] offers a set of bold policy proposals, including hefty #WealthTaxes on #billionaires, sharp reductions in working hours, a change in diets and a shift of investment from materially intense sectors like industry and #mining to education and health.

[...]

"This 'plan for equality and prosperity within planetary boundaries' is the product of 45 authors based on databases compiled by more than 200 researchers from the world.

"At its core is the concept of sufficiency – the idea that people can enjoy a prosperous, healthy life without constantly striving to consume or accumulate more #MaterialPossessions that degrade the #NaturalWorld on which all life depends.

"To achieve this, the authors envisage three steps: more than halving average working time from 2,100 hours a year to 1,000 hours, roughly equivalent to a two-and-a-half-day working week; encouraging people to #EatLessRedMeat, which is the main driver of deforestation and ecological destruction; and refocusing the economy toward #LowConsumption activities by more than doubling #Education spending to €8,400 euros (£7,250) a person and #healthcare spending to 14,400 euros.

"Piketty said: 'One extra euro of GDP in education and health has three to four times less material footprint and energy consumption than one extra euro of GDP in the manufacturing sector. So that’s why the sectoral shifts are hugely important.' "
