Our problems are too many, & too severe for #renewables alone to solve. We need #SystemChange
As the world focusses on the #ClimateCrisis symptom, very few have stopped to examine the cause. population.org.au/?s=climate
“Climate science” values growth more than the climate. That’s why climate impacts are compartmentalised and we pursue only those “climate actions” which are compatible with growth. Most climate science is non-objective, human supremacist, and frankly fraudulent.

One of the few who understand that there's no such thing as #sustainability within a system that seeks endless "growth" ... on a finite planet. I only wish the massive #ClimateAction movement would see the root cause and start including #degrowth in their message.

Of which The Tragedy Of The "Commons" is a 19 seventies pre Global Capitalist green model which uses concept of the "Commons" (based on shared us of resources in pre Enclosures Britain) instead of "capital".
Great to see the idea of "natural capital" working it's way into the agricultural sector. "Natural capital" is a re-branding of natural resources (#nature) such as soil, water & living things so they can be better recognised, valued & managed in an economic & ecological sense.…
WANTED- I want to take my #Degrowth presentation around Australia next year- but I need help! I need a financial backer(s) and/or a celebrity willing to get involved (to boost the profile of events) and some key skill support. **** I have the knowledge, I have the material, I…
2 ways you pay for rapid #population growth: 1. Funding the attempt to build supporting infrastructure fast enough 2. Decline in access to infrastructure because they never can Profits privatised & captured- costs socialised Investors win, majority lose. population.org.au/sign-the-spa-p…

Capitalism's creation is the GDP growth economy. Which now created, is equally destructive in the hands of any other ideology. #Degrowth to #SaveTheWorld
Anyone else noticing how everything is in decline- ... as our populations / economies grow?
I’m waiting for the next round of #water conservation ads to roll & costs to rise. Weird how adding an extra 80k people to the same water supply is ok but existing citizens are asked to ‘conserve water’ & pay for new desal infrastructure. ... yet another way we subsidise the…
It's not easy being the guy constantly delivering economic/ecological reality checks on 'feelgood' ideas. I'd love to embrace the "welcome the world here & all live happily ever after in a renewables driven eco-wonderland", but it just cannot be- there ARE #LimitstoGrowth, ... &…
People need to move beyond their emotive based support for immigration & population growth Yes it would be wonderful if our land had no limits & 'more the merrier' was really a thing But there are deep & serious economic & ecological costs to overshoot which must take priority
"ISLAMABAD: Lawmakers from across Pakistan have called for declaring rapid unsustainable #population growth a national emergency & integrating population welfare into all development and policy frameworks." Slowly the light dawns. dawn.com/news/1950197?f…

Population surge declared national emergency
Parliamentarians welcome Council of Islamic Ideology’s endorsement of birth spacing.
Sadly, they know that growth at current levels is both unpopular and unsustainable. Still, against all evidence, they proceed with a policy that pumps GDP, with no regard for per-person outcomes or the impact on our biophysical environment that supports all life on our planet.
@Peter_Strachan now it's the time to let this hopeless givt know influx of international students and migrants needs to be stopped., giving international students , PR , based upon unnecessary mode of studies and so call experience needs to be stopped
Few things are questioned less in this world than the one thing that really needs to be, ..."economic growth". medium.com/@martinrev21/d…
What is a "Steady State Economy"? An economy which combines deep science-based ecological understanding, with economics to produce a new organisational framework to manage productive human endeavour in a manner which remains safely within the carrying capacity of our lands, over…
#Renewables are just dipping your toe in the waters of genuine sustainability. The big game changer is system change- a phase of #degrowth (to guide us out of overshoot), followed by the application of a 'steady state economy'. Until people accept this en masse, our decline…
To repeat myself: I am NOT against #renewables! I am SO against the prevailing idea that they are anywhere near sufficient, & will solve our problems without a substantial downsizing in consumption (aka #Degrowth in the scale of our economy). I'm also against the over-focus on…
Economic "growth"- What's it really growing? Let's look at its track record, not its unfulfilled promises- 1. Corporate profits 2. Political corruption 3. Inequality 4. Ecological impact 5. Resource depletion 6. Human well-being decline 7. Individualism over community 8. Stress…
More people equals more impact on the environment that supports all life on the planet. #ReduceThePressure
Climate impacts + #overpopulation. Let's end the denial and speak openly about #population factors in environmental & social problems. population.org.au/spa-promotes-a…
