Farewell to Growth
Polity | 2010-02-15 | ISBN: 0745646166 | 180 pages | PDF | 1,1 MB
Most of us who live in the North and the West consume far too much – too much meat, too much fat, too much sugar, too much salt. We are more likely to put on too much weight than to go hungry. We live in a society that is heading for a crash. We are aware of what is happening and yet we refuse to take it fully into account. Above all we refuse to address the issue that lies at the heart of our problems – namely, the fact that our societies are based on an economy whose only goal is growth for growth’s sake.
It's unclear to us why the death of Steve Jobs has hit us hard. We never knew him personally. We love Android and hate the iOS closed model. Despite that, while watching the videos when writing this, we would tear up, occasionally. Is it because his age isn't that far off of ours? Whatever the reason, farewell, Steve.
