This is fundamentally about justice. Small island states face total uninhabitability. 5 billion depend on monsoons we're destabilizing. Those who contributed least to the crisis face the worst impacts.

Any solution that doesn't center equity, human rights & community governance isn't a real solution.

We need BOTH: emergency brake on catastrophic tipping points + accelerator on positive ones.
Listen to full episode—it'll change how you see this moment.

"So you’re arguing that they’re environmentally unsustainable, rather than, say, economically unsustainable."

"Climate change will not be stopped by throttling the economy. That would only lead to marginal slowing of it and the total incapability of ever fixing it. It is castrating civilization. The only way is massively expanding the economy and technological progress in order for it to become a trivial challenge. China will be net neutral before any serious western economy."

#degrowth

Ich bin Kapitalist – und du wahrscheinlich auch.
Nicht, weil wir es wollten, sondern weil wir in diesem System aufgewachsen sind.
Wir funktionieren nach seinen Regeln: Zeit ist Geld, Erfolg ist Vergleich, Wert misst sich in Nutzen.

Doch was wäre, wenn wir das Preisschild endlich abreißen – und anfangen, anders zu leben, zu teilen, zu denken? 🌱

👉 Let’s Talk Technology and Degrowth with Andreas Roos
📅 Friday November 14 17:00- 18:30
📍ABF-huset Malmö
🎟️ Free, but please RSVP (see link below)

Technology has a prominent role in contemporary society and degrowth proposes a radical transformation of society. That raises questions. What are the degrowth movements’ views on technology? What does technological innovation from a degrowth perspective look like? And how is that similar or different to other progressive political movements?

Institute of Degrowth Studies invites Andreas Roos to introduce the topic and answer these and other questions you may have. So join us for a presentation and Q&A moderated by Roel Roscam Abbing.

Andreas Roos, Ph.D., is an interdisciplinary scholar interested in human-environmental relations. His work draws on insights from fields such as ecological economics, political ecology, and environmental justice to understand the relation between technology and ecology in crisis.

Roel Roscam Abbing is a practice-based researcher in arts and design. He is currently pursuing a PhD in Interaction Design at Malmö University’s School of Arts and Communication (K3).

What is #degrowth?
We offer a definition wherein the fundamental core is the planned reduction of energy and material use to keep within planetary limits, while the associated 'pluriversal' belt of concepts and practices is also essential to degrowth.

"“With AI and robotics, you can actually increase the global economy by a factor of 10 or 100. There’s not like an obvious limit,” Musk told the audience."

This purports to be “a contribution to the ecosocialism vs. horizontalism debate” in #degrowth, but I find this whole discourse hugely frustrating, akin to asking “Would you rather live in a ten-story Tadao Ando bunker or get around in a solid platinum ekranoplan?”. Neither of the mooted prospects is remotely on offer in any polity I can think of. The nemawashi, the painstaking work of relationship-building & political communication necessary, has barely begun. https://www.resilience.org/stories/2025-10-30/minority-influence-how-can-degrowth-step-up/

The version of our "Minority influence: how can degrowth step up? A contribution to the ecosocialism vs horizontalism debate." at Resilience reads a bit better on some devices (wordprocessor->wordpress format problems with the tables). The content is the same as at the above link.

I want to be clear that I don't support covering the planet in solar panels. The last thing our wild plant and animal friends need is more pressure on their habitats. But unfortunately at least in the US, there is a deep expectation for growth. People want there 401k's to go up. They want their kids to have more than they did. The book convincingly argues that those economic desires require physical energy. So until our collective mindset changes, there will be growing demand for energy with solar being the most feasible form.

…Anyway, my recommendation is that those of us not already living at the margins *voluntarily* downsize. And out of that comes the strong probability of less resentment.

Here’s the very wonderful @danmcquillan talking to @parismarx about #decomputing, a kind of #degrowth

https://overcast.fm/+ZpQCTh3cE

"In the time of the polycrisis the average human contribution to the world has to change from negative to positive. We need to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and restore biodiversity and depleted soil. It is clear that removing all the harm people are doing to nature is not enough. We need to actively fix things. The total contribution of the people to the world has to be positive."
