THE GREATNESS OF BAYFIELD COUNTY LIES IN ITS STEADY STATE

Benji Backer #Prosperity to a point is fine, but there is a fundamental conflict between economic #growth and environmental protection. Fundamental because the conflict stems from basic physics and ecology.

Let's all remember what ' #conserve ' really means. Quite the opposite of #GDP growth.

Now 'that does not compute.'

2023 puts a strain on folks who’d normally buy #Christmas gifts for friends and family. Brian Czech eases the pressure with a little home-spun theology. You can skip the shopping; Christ would have.

He'd especially have skipped the AR-15 aisle!

The crisis in the #MiddleEast is fueled by competition for resources in the pursuit of unsustainable growth— population and #GDP growth. In this week's Herald, Daniel Wortel-London takes a steady-state perspective on the #IsraelPalestineWar ...

Last week, thousands of policymakers converged on New York City for Climate Week. Most of their discussions revolved around the failed nostrums of 'Green Growth.' But not entirely. Not with CASSE's policy specialist, Daniel Wortel-London, in the mix...

Reflecting on his years at the Worldwatch Institute and beyond, CASSE editor Gary Gardner has a lament and a challenge to journalists, consumers, and frankly all of us.

In this week’s Steady State Herald, Brian Czech proffers a statutory definition of “economic development,” a prominent term treated vaguely by Congress.

DUMB GROWTH

The harm done by economic growth is catching up to us. It's not just the environment now; even health is declining with GDP. Especially in the USA.

Better to focus on education, which improves health and the environment.

'X' dropped the featured image.

Vladimir Putin is orchestrating one of the vilest episodes of wanton waste in history: his attack on Ukrainian grain ports. He’s killed innocent Ukrainians for 18 months; now he’s starving masses at the margins.
And there's another thing, affecting YOU...

There are limits to the conspicuous consumption Earth can support. Rampant wealth inequality pushes us out of bounds. The penalty is existential.

To stay in bounds, we'd apply income caps in a #steadystateeconomy .
