Less Is More - Degrowth in Development

I’ve started reading for my SPEP, and practising my acronyms, always a useful skill for academia. SPEP stands for Sustainable Planning & Environmental Policy. Past few years I‘ve been focussed on the nature and climate emergency we‘re at the beginning of, and I was a bit worried that planning and environmental policy aren‘t really focussing on the systemic failings of capitalism.

And then I remembered Jason Hickel.

Degrowth and sustainable development, they go hand in hand.
