Current climate models rely on unproven tech because they refuse to question economic growth. A new framework for "post-growth" scenarios shows that prioritizing basic needs over GDP could satisfy universal well-being using less than half of current global energy and materials.

Exciting new "post-growth" scenarios show how prioritizing everyone's basic needs over GDP could achieve universal well-being using less than half our current energy and materials! 🌍 This offers a hopeful vision for a truly sustainable future. #SustainableFuture #WellbeingForAll #PostGrowth

Climate Collapse Is Not an Accident This essay argues that climate collapse is structurally embedded in capitalism. It examines why reform repeatedly stalls and what systemic change would require.

“A post-capitalist climate transition does not mean abolishing coordination, innovation or production. It means reorganising them around ecological stability & human needs rather than profit-maximisation.” #PostCapitalism #Degrowth #PostGrowth
