Thank you for this, Pat.

Yes, "degrowth" can be a problem rather than a solution, especially to those who are already on the brink or are already caught in the sinkhole of poverty.

I didn't mean to promote the term "sustainable development", which as you said is already corrupted/polluted. I used the terms separately in the sense that Daly meant them. 

I agree we need to find and settle on some new vocabulary that reflects precisely the ideas we are promoting. "Commonwealth" may work in some context. It is a good term, though the term also carries some historical baggage, which can be negative in some countries. "Cooperative", or even P2P are good words. "Democracy" is another overused word, and it is too identified with representative democracy, which as we know has been mostly hijacked by corporations. I haven't settled on the right term(s) yet, and I scan all the exchanges here and other lists in the hope of discovering the right term(s).

I count myself as a Green, but the word "green" has also been coopted, and I now find myself having to explain everytime I use the term.

But that is generally the case. When a term acquires positive connotations, corporate marketers jump on it and appropriate it for their own use. And they have a much larger media budget than most of us combined. Perhaps we can still find a combination of terms whose deep connotations are so anti-corporate that they dare not appropriate it. "Free software" is probably one such term (though RMS also found it necessary to clarify what "free" meant).

I disagree that "there is no green version that will work at all", although this may be more because we associate different meanings to that word. I consider Green my description of closed material cycles fuelled by renewable energy, where the cycles of biological and non-biological materials are kept separate (with very well-defined interfaces between them, I would add--a concept I borrow from software design). I think this is already working in some situations. It even accomodates some form of growth (putting in more renewable energy to speed up the material flows).

Greetings,

Roberto

We are experiencing degrowth in Europe in austerity stricken regions and here in the UK, Wales has been in a depression along with the North of England if you look at the falls in GDP post 2010. However these regional indicators are not talked about but but the national UK headline figures that show low-level aggregate growth. In fact degrowth and recession/depression is the underlying problem.

> Growth and its necessity is driven by returns required to capital to service debt both for households, nations and businesses. But as Mill indicated but also Keynes in his essay on the future a hundred years ago, we need to move to post capitalist society and end usury practices in relation to land, money and other speculation. This means as the old co-op saying has stressed, labour needs to hire capital or indeed reformulate money and make it neutral money or interest free. As Stephen Yeo has said, the early Owenite socialists but also the Proudhonians in France from the 1820s sought ways and means to develop co-op land and co-op money without economic rent, interest seekers, etc.  See here the thinking of post Keynesians on cheap money, Daly on money as a commons (an essay of his), Silvio Gesell on negative interest rates, etc. This Owenite thinking was also an anti-politics then as working people had no franchise. The thinking is at the roots of what we have overlooked as Co-op
 erative Economics.

We define a sustainable technology as one that involves a closed loop of material cycles run by renewable energy, where cycles of biodegradable materials and cycles of non-biodegradable materials (which McDonough and Braungart call "technical materials") are kept separate. Other technologies we actually work with include the system of rice intensification (SRI), which currently holds the world record in rice yield and can be implemented organically, low-power FM (in which the technology determines form and content to a significant extent), biogas digesters, a social (rather than technical) solution to power outages through the use of traditional and social media, and a few others.

So I can still see growth as a component in an overall strategy of development.
