Surprised to see some fair coverage of #degrowth in Forbes.
Definitely not perfect; under the paragraph "Challengers to degrowth" they write "Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz raises an essential consideration: while sacrifices may be necessary, ensuring they're fairly distributed is crucial."
As if equality and decolonisation aren't central themes to degrowth.
Anyway, I'll take it. It's getting the term out there in the public consciousness.
