It seems like the biggest problem is that we have been so consumed with growth that we have failed to implement strategies for graceful reductions in population and economic activity. Now that so many nations are experiencing demographic changes it might be good to come up with something for that.
- alexfromapex 3y agoYes it has amazed me too that the topic of overpopulation/overconsumption strategies hasn’t really been openly discussed in many governments. I know it’s controversial but it’s so important it really should be more transparently discussed.
- Gibbon1 3y agoI think we perhaps have failed to ask what does a person need actually. Heading off the standard rebuttal many many consequential things aren't very resource intensive, like vaccines, safe food, birth control. And a lot of resource intensive things kind a suck, looking at you Mr Car in the driveway beckoning me to drive yet again into the office.
