I hate the word "degrowth"
We need better branding.

The world is going to hell in a mining car because of better branding.

For once we need some hard truth.

"We are often asked to consider a different framing: utopian futures, human flourishing, a good life for all, even doughnut economics. But all of those terms are like the false donation bin, or the eco-friendly walk-on-water charade. They communicate a story, but not the hard truth about our ecological situation."

I'm confused, it sounds like you're disagreeing with the article, though I'm sure you aren't.

(Then again, I'll admit that actually made me want to read the article)
