~ Growth is not the solution — New InternationalistA generation of ecologists, demographers, and a few unorthodox economists, however, have together built the case that growth is not the solution – it is part of the problem, and a core component of an economic model that needs to be changed.

But though the idea has been bandied about for decades, the system remains unchanged.
