Abstract: | In recent years, slow-, de- and post-growth imaginaries have increasingly entered mainstream discourses, particularly in the field of environmentalism. Many scholars argue that changing and reducing global consumption patterns should be at the heart of climate and biodiversity action. At the heart of this discussion lies the question of what constitutes the good life. Given the poor levels of physical and mental health in globalised societies, post-growth advocates and (green) growth critics would argue that our present values are working neither for society nor for the planet. They argue that we should strive for sufficiency, not accumulation. | ||||||
