It’s not that everything that’s happened in capitalism is bad, but when it comes to economics, @michaelmezz ask if we shouldn’t be be asking who this endless growth is for, if it serves us, and if there isn’t, perhaps, a better way? x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
How do we achieve a “Goldilocks Economy” that works for all? Economist @michaelmezz gives his thoughts to @IAmPoliticsGirl. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
This is big: A new article in @Nature shows that already at current emissions, "the world economy is committed to an income reduction of 19% within the next 26 years independent of future emission choices." This is a GDP loss of almost one fifth. nature.com/articles/s4158…
I’ve said it before on here, and I’m gonna say it again: it doesn’t matter whether you believe in climate change, only that the insurance industry does

NEW: my column this week is about the coming vibe shift, from Boomers vs Millennials to huge wealth inequality *between* Millennials. Current discourse centres on how the average Millennial is worse-off than the average Boomer was, but the richest millennials are loaded 💸🚀
💬@michaelmezz starts conversations about the big, transformative economic ideas we need to ensure a planet where everybody thrives. We asked him why he believes our economic system needs an urgent upgrade. Watch now ⬇️
Here's the source that @michaelmezz is referring to in this excellent breakdown of Angus Deaton's recent article on how our economic system is failing us. imf.org/en/Publication… imf.org/en/Publication…

modern economics is failing us, says a Nobel Prize-winning economist
If you know of any great initiatives, local or global, that aim to meet the needs of all people within the means of the living world, we'd love to hear - so we can inspire school students with many examples of action. To let us know, see thread below - and pls RT!
For every gram of carbon burned by one person is a gram of carbon that can't be burned by someone else. 🎯 - @michaelmezz Saw this on LinkedIn. And it makes a lot of sense.
Can we make economics eco-friendly? @michaelmezz has some crafty ideas. That's why he's on our #ClimateCreators24 list w/ @PiqueAction. Follow him to explore merging economics and #ClimateSolutions.
developed countries need to slow down economic growth

are there any good visualizations of what a post-growth or post-capitalism economic model might look like? drawings, 3D models, etc… the more detail, the better. there must be something out there!
extinction, pollution, overconsumption, climate change… these social problems were predicted decades ago. the case for a wellbeing economy is stronger now than ever.
has anyone done a credible analysis of how CO2 emissions (and forecast reductions) will interact with climate "tipping points" to affect global temperatures?

Millennials have had one another’s backs until now, but as the wealth gap between those with and without deep-pocketed parents becomes increasingly visible, and the realisation dawns that renting was only ever temporary for some, that generational solidarity may start to fracture
@dwallacewells Yep, we are roughly talking about reducing emissions as fast as we increased them over much of the past century. Not impossible, but far from easy, and the longer we wait to start emissions reductions the steeper it gets:
In the longer view of historical patterns, even the more forgiving pathways to 2C look pretty steep:
The ship has largely sailed on limiting warming to 1.5C at this point, barring us getting very lucky with low climate sensitivity or actively geoengineering the climate. But there still are viable paths to limit warming to below 2C this century, as shown in the figure below:
