The notion that one’s income reflects their productivity, or the value they contribute to society, is one of the most pernicious fallacies of neoclassical economics.

My eyes popped when I saw this. The European Environment Agency has acknowledged that green growth is "unlikely" and calls for post-growth and degrowth alternatives to be integrated into EU policy. eea.europa.eu/publications/g…

"Economic growth is closely linked to increases in resource use and has detrimental effects on the natural environment and human health. It is unlikely that a long-lasting, absolute decoupling of economic growth from environmental pressures and impacts can be achieved."

"The ongoing Great Acceleration in loss of biodiversity, climate change and pollution is tightly coupled to economic activities and economic growth." "Technological development has so far been associated with increased consumption rather than the reverse."

"An absolute reduction of environmental pressures and impacts would require fundamental transformations to a different type of economy and society — instead of incremental efficiency gains within established production and consumption systems."

Corporations like to say their profits are due to "innovation", but in reality "innovation" quite often boils down to finding new ways to exploit labour and nature, evade taxes, establish monopolies, buy politicians, get government subsidies, and patent publicly-funded research.

It’s NAIDOC Week! Here’s one of my favourite possessions. The official 1997 NAIDOC poster that my mum kept, because blak mums keep everything… #HealCountry

Would really love to see a Murri (QLD) community-controlled university. All community-grounded blakfulla researchers and educators. No ATAR entry, just commitment to contribute back to community/their Nation. Graduate pathways into community controlled health, edu, media

The freedom to resist the forces that are causing climate breakdown is a fundamental human right. It is the right to life.

Incredibly powerful and important keynote by @drcwatego on #race #racism and Black Power. All people and institutions need to respect First Nations Sovereignty.

I need some ideas to stop saying hey “guys.” I know there are lots of better gender neutral options. “People” is one but kinda boring.

My first #ferment ! Zucchini in its own juices and salt. That's it. About one and half weeks on the kitchen bench. It tastes...okay! Following Sándor Katz's approach. #fermentation @ Kangaroo Valley, New South Wales instagram.com/p/CYu5z48B5ha/…

We need action now, and planning for the future. That’s why John Harding is voting Yes. #yes23

Roy Gibson is a traditional owner & Elder for the Kuku Yalanji people, promoting Indigenous eco-tourism in Mossman Gorge. Roy is voting Yes because he believes that working in collaboration with the government is the best way to address issues he sees in his community.
