In response to this post@dan613 @gerrymcgovern What is the connection of ad hoc COVID response and planned degrowth? Does this way of cost calculation still apply in a degrowth world?
@kawentzmann @gerrymcgovern Yes. Degrowth means lowered GDP, which correlates strongly with poverty. You have to first work out a way to decouple GDP and poverty. Then you can talk about degrowth.
Some things do work, though. Higher density urbanization uses fewer resources, and is therefore cheaper. Same with more public transit and bike infrastructure. Eliminating fast fashion (which is oil based). But if you can't convince people of those minor steps, how will you convince them to change every aspect of their lives? It would take a dictatorship.
