A truly astounding documentary. Please do take some time to watch it. It talks about how poverty begun and why it is so difficult to end. It really does make you re-think your whole attitude to government, fair trade, charity and life in general!
The thing that struck me most was the idea of “agrowth” as a parallel to “atheism”; where “agrowth” refers to the exiting of the religion of economic, removing the religion of growth. Rather, to de-grow and reduce waste, reduce over-utilization of natural resources, reduce work, and in turn, rediscover other aspects of life.
xx jam.
