The Degrowth Delusion: Dispelling one of history's truly terrible ideas
View through CrossRef
In The Degrowth Delusion, Dr. Adam Dorr – an environmental scientist, technology theorist, and the Director of Research at the renowned technology think tank RethinkX – shows us why the emperor has no clothes. Degrowth will not solve ecological and social problems, it would make them worse. Drawing on his team’s groundbreaking work and unparalleled understanding of technological progress, he explains why a stellar future awaits us which is far brighter than most have ever dared to dream, thanks to imminent disruptions in energy, transportation, food, and labor.
Will we tell our children and grandchildren about the challenges we defeated? Or will we tell them about the challenges that defeated us?
The solution isn't to do less. We must do better.
The Degrowth Delusion explains why we need to rethink environmentalism for the 21st Century based on sustainable superabundance for all.
