Degrowth Vienna hat dies direkt geteilt
HAPPY GLOBAL DEGROWTH DAY! 🐌 💚 🌍 It is often said that #degrowth is the trajectory, #doughnuteconomics is the destination. ↘🍩😊 I'm looking forward to taking part in this film screening and discussion this evening with Verena Mischitz, maker of the excellent "Can we shrink the Economy" ARTE documentary, and Gabriel Trettel Silva of Modul University. Whatever your feelings or preconceptions about terms like #degrowth, there is increasing recognition that our current economic system - rooted in extraction, exploitation, overconsumption and unequal exchange - is driving us to ecological and societal disaster, while failing to provide the basis of a good life for all. Meanwhile there is an exciting community of scientists, researchers and practitioners exploring economic alternatives whose ideas are increasingly entering the mainstream (despite fierce opposition from upholders of the status quo). I am grateful to organiser Lisette von Maltzahn and Degrowth Vienna for creating space for these important discussions. Oh, and what better evening to discuss new beginnings under the stars than on the summer solstice 🌝 . Join us from 19:00 tonight at the 4lthangrund (former WU)! https://lnkd.in/dFVXMujE
