#7 Thematic stream
#Degrowth conferences had a lot of research pointing to the conclusion that urgent decarbonisation is unattainable through ecological modernisation.
🌍 This makes degrowth a political project with the aim to place limits on destructive economic activities.
⚠️We announce that the deadline for submissions for the Conference will be extended until 29th January 2023.
📣 Use this opportunity to encourage anyone else who wished to apply to do so!

#4 Thematic stream of the conference
🚫 There is a message that once we get the right kind of growth the world won’t have to worry about growth per se.
🌍 As #degrowth-ers, we know that the carbon-fetishism of green growth is at best a distraction.
