Haven't read the book but sounds like its advocating a moderately regulated form of capitalism?

The idea that unfettered market forces are the solution to everything is like saying the "race to the most unethical and profitable solutions" will always save us.

Also "clean technology" is currently always produced by fossil fuels... because its cheaper to.

I find personal #degrowth and #voluntarysimplicity pleasant. I hope others find their love for it, regardless of system.

@shojiwax Personally the two biggest things that naturally led me to the Solutions without thinking about it, are: #minimalism and #spirituality. Maybe these are captured by #voluntarySimplicity which I had not heard of till now.

A big part of Spirituality (not to be confused with religion/dogma) is seeing that materialism is a fail, and developing inner-worth instead. Realizing that everything (i.e. environment, other living things/people) is interconnected. Naturally you reduce consumption.

Back in 1998, just a few months after our son was born, I quit my job with no other job behind it and @sagetyrtle and I went off to both be at-home parents. If we were going to do this we knew we had to scale back our lifestyle immensely until we could live on next to no money. How did we manage? Well, we started like this...

Kia ora! I've been on fedi since April, but here's a new #introduction for my new instance. I'm a fan of #VoluntarySimplicity / #SimpleLiving. Expect photos of vegetables I grow, 2 black rescue cats & views of Otago Harbour. I occasionally post in #Gàidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) which I'm learning. I'm also learning Korean but I'm not good enough to post in that yet! I know a little Te Reo Māori, Deutsch & Français. I get around by bike & public transport.
