Europe, It’s time to end growth dependency. <br>
<br>
On occasion of the Post-Growth conference at the EU Parliament, over 200 scientists sent a letter to the EU institutions and member states. This conference is a huge step towards seeing a healthy economic shift towards Post Growth in the EU. The letter was published by The Guardian, and over 15 EU newspapers.<br>
<br>
The main goals for the petition include:<br>
1. Constitute a special commission on Post-Growth Futures in the EU Parliament.<br>
2. Prioritise social and environmental indicators.<br>
3. Turn the Stability and Growth Pact (SGP) into a Stability and Wellbeing Pact.<br>
4. Establish a Ministry for Economic Transition in each member state<br>
<br>
More details here: <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/sep/16/the-eu-needs-a-stability-and-wellbeing-pact-not-more-growth" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/sep/16/the-eu-needs-a-stability-and-wellbeing-pact-not-more-growth</a><br>
<br>
Please sign the petition, and spread it widely. Anyone is welcome to sign it, scientists or not, European or not. A post-growth future concerns us all! <br>

<br>
Giorgos Kallis will hand over the petition to Antonio Tajani, the President of the EU Parliament this Wednesday, at the conference closure. Don't leave him alone!<br>
