"The roots of the Degrowth movement date back to the 1970s, when economists, ecologists and social thinkers began questioning the ecological consequences of growth. The Club of Rome’s 1972 report, The Limits to Growth, warned of resource depletion and environmental collapse if growth remained unchecked. It gained further momentum in the early 21st century as concerns about climate change and inequality have intensified."
