Reflections on 'Beyond Growth' | Frankly #31
Summary
<p dir="ltr">On this Frankly, Nate reflects on the Beyond Growth Conference held at the European Parliament, including the stunning public acknowledgement by EU President that a growth model based on fossil fuels is now obsolete. In the context of this growing and relevant conversation, Nate unpacks what the degrowth movement is getting right, but also what is missing from the conversation. Is it possible to purposely navigate from our current system to one with lower energy and material wealth? How does a large and growing global debt overhang impact this possibility? Is a transfer of wealth between nations feasible or even desirable based on realistic outcomes? In any case, as to the inevitability of a post-growth world, the degrowth conversation needs to be expanded. It's the primary movement mapping out what a desirable destination might look like as we move through a Great Simplification.</p> <p> </p> <p>Watch on Youtube: <a href="https://youtu.be/JYbIsXoBg70">https://youtu.be/JYbIsXoBg70</a></p> <p>For Show Notes and More: <a href="https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/frankly-original/31-reflections-on-beyond-growth"> https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/frankly-original/31-reflections-on-beyond-growth</a></p>
