How To Do Degrowth

In four easy steps.

Degrowth is the Answer

"For purists, EVs are a textbook case of bona fide demand destruction. The gradual replacement of gasoline-powered cars with battery-powered ones was eroding oil demand by 1.7 million barrels a day in 2025, a figure likely to triple by 2030, the IEA says.

 

This distinction gets to the heart of the climate challenge. Keeping global temperatures in check entails permanently destroying fossil-fuel demand"

@freistern @BlumeEvolution @haiku_shelf Selbsthilfe klingt etwas zynisch. Wohl höchstens gegenseitige Hilfe (u. auch das geht nicht unbegrenzt). - Einverstanden, was (freiwilliges) #degrowth betrifft, aber auch das braucht das menschliche Maß, damit Gesellschaften nicht sehr schlimm und unmenschlich „umkippen“ unter den Belastungen.

Ich denke, dass wir auch bei einer Geburtenrate (TFR) von 1,8 eine Bevölkerungsschrumpfung von 10-15% pro Generation hätten - heftig, aber m.E. gut bewältigbar. Bei TFR unter 1,6 droht die demografische Traditionalismusfalle und wenn dann noch Abwanderung hinzukommt, droht die mediale Rechtsmimesis.

Auch bei Demografie scheint es mir klug, Extreme sowohl beim Wachsen wie Schrumpfen eher zu vermeiden.

Peak Child - Zeitenumbruch auch durch die Geburtenimplosion

Laut UN-Berechnungen sinken die Kinderzahlen seit 2017 bereits weltweit. Wann endet das globale Bevölkerungswachstum?

@BlumeEvolution

Ist ein netter Move mit "Unterjüngung".

Aber wir wollen das Wachstum der Weltbevölkerung stoppen. Dann ist die demografische Entwicklung keine Schieflage. Wir sind in unserer Region halt die Versuchskaninchen. Die nächste Region wird China sein.

Wir werden den #degrowth gestalten müssen. Dazu wird eine Aktivierung der Alten (selber Ü70) nötig sein. Das wird nicht mit dem heiligen Markt möglich sein. Eher so Richtung Selbsthilfe. Also böser Kollektivismus.

"We find that, in 2021, the economies of the global North net-appropriated 826 billion hours of embodied labour from the global South, across all skill levels and sectors. The wage value of this net-appropriated labour was equivalent to €16.9 trillion in Northern prices, accounting for skill level. "

" “Building” is a powerful metaphor that has long structured how we think about progress and accomplishment. What might be the new metaphors, the new rubrics, for an epoch of repair? How might professions premised on growth and consumption — new buildings, new landscapes, new cities — adapt to the new urgencies of reuse, preservation, and degrowth?"

" When we use or create healthy soil, a broad gamut of benefits bursts forth: Rich soil sequesters carbon and promotes biodiversity both above and below ground. It grows healthy plants—which in turn grow healthy people and animals. Good soil stores water, reduces erosion, prevents runoff, and stores and exchanges nutrients. It does lots more; the benefits go on and on."

“Give me a place to stand and a lever long enough, and I will move the world.” With these words, the ancient Greek philosopher Archimedes taught us the power of leverage points. It’s a key concept in permaculture design, too. When we deeply understand the system we’re working with—be it a garden, a business, a […]
