The #UN University published their #InterconnectedRisks Report: It's a theory about how we can #change our world for sustainable living (and why it is possible): https://interconnectedrisks.org/

When I had the idea for my podcast about #ReconnectingWithNature, a lot of people laughed at it. Now I find this #mindshift again and even some #solarpunk ideas like #care, #humility, #sufficiency https://interconnectedrisks.org/2025/theory-of-deep-change Well, let's start to work on a better world, and fight this minority of destroyers! 1/2

How to build a world around sufficiency or "frugal abundance"

The second session of our 3-year Study Circle on Degrowth & Exnovation is now open to all for registration! Join us in Finland to explore and discuss how to build resilient communities in the midst of collapse, while dismantling the fossil capitalist economy.

https://www.nsuweb.org/circle-9-degrowth-and-exnovation/

How are people organizing locally along degrowth principles of sufficiency and conviviality? What challenges do we face, and what tactics can we pursue in establishing ways of living that allow dismantling of harmful organizations, infrastructure, technologies and ideas, that contribute to extractivism and fossil capitalism?

Suggested themes of discussion include initiatives for convivial community-based leisure (let's turn airports into natural recreation areas!), paths towards nowtopias, municipal organizing, neo-ruralism, defense of the commons, convivial conservation, unlearning high-tech and promoting low-tech, among many others.

The session will be part of the Nordic Summer University's summer session, including 8 concurrent study circles on other super-cool topics, which you can also attend: https://www.nsuweb.org/activities/summer-session/

Revisiting ‘future fit’.

What do others think? See the linked thread for context.

I like that it’s both aspirational and encodes a warning. I like that it’s contingent upon the conditions constantly emerging.

Let me know your thoughts

Wow Our paper "Earth beyond six of nine planetary boundaries" that we published just over a year ago (Sept 2023) has now been downloaded a mind-blowing half a million times.

It demonstrates the enormous importance of considering the stability of Earth as a whole. We're destabilising our planet in more ways than just climate. We really, really do have to get our act together. #Sufficiency

'Sufficiency is a whole-of-government approach that aims to create the structural change needed for societies to consume less overall. It also seeks to ensure wellbeing for all people, not just the affluent'.

Less is more

Unlike efficiency, sufficiency calls for reducing demand & tackling overconsumption & living responsibly on Earth
