Establish a new non growth circular economy
Abandon unsustainable economics as soon as possible before we consume all available resources.
Choose models like Doughnut Economics that is being trialled in Amsterdam.
Why the contribution is important
We just cannot continue to consume more than we can supply. This is elementary for our survival and well-being and the sooner we establish a safe model the better, for us and our descendants. We cannot keep on handing over responsibility for our carbon footprint to the countries who export to us. It is our economic demand and our footprint and it is essential to foster a less materialistic culture. Otherwise the production will continue in China and other Asian and far eastern countries causing huge pollution and warming and exacerbating the melting of the Himalayan glaciers and the polar ice caps.
