Our global economic system is premised on the idea that gross domestic product needs to constantly grow. But on a finite planet, is green growth possible? And is prosperity possible in a world without growth? Today’s guest is Dr. Tim Jackson, Professor of Sustainable Development at the University of Surrey and Director of the Centre for the Understanding of Sustainable Prosperity. Tim is a leading researcher on de-growth, and is the author of several books on the subject including Prosperity without Growth, Post Growth - Life After Capitalism, and his latest The Care Economy. Tim explains the problems with our need for constant growth–how it is not only incompatible with a sustainable future but is also bad for our well-being. He also shares what a post growth society premised on a care economy could look like.
