Not long ago I saw a couple of videos, on in favor [1] and another against [2] "infinite growth". The one against were much more convincing. It got me thinking, because on the one hand it's true that living standards are higher than ever on the West, but also inequalities grow more unjust, in and outside the West.

Hace poco vi un par de vídeos, uno a favor [1] y otro en contra [2] del "crecimiento infinito". Mucho más convincente el que habla en contra. Me dio qué pensar, porque por un lado es cierto que las condiciones de vida son mejores que nunca en el mundo occidental, pero por otro las desigualdades cada vez son más injustas, dentro y fuera de occidente.

Once people understand what #Degrowth is, the majority support it (74–84% in the #UK & 67–73% in the #US), regardless of the label.
