Our Economy is constantly working towards more stuff and it is not always the right stuff for our health, our oceans and the earth. What if it changed towards better stuff? We can all do our part to stop this nonsense and move towards better solutions, better jobs and health, not just more stuff and therefore more garbage.
The Story of Solutions explores how we can move our economy in a more sustainable and just direction, starting with orienting ourselves toward a new goal.
In the current ‘Game of More’, we’re told to cheer a growing economy — more roads, more malls, more Stuff! — even though our health indicators are worsening, income inequality is growing and polar icecaps are melting.
But what if we changed the point of the game? What if the goal of our economy wasn’t more, but better — better health, better jobs and a better chance to survive on the planet?
Shouldn’t that be what winning means?
