and we use everything under the sun to get everybody indulgent in it. rather than be involved in real and necessary matters. and its also the same in science, tech n space research. endless ideologies with totally untoward involvements.

humans have EGOS right ? but how do we allow it to grow n grow until we come to this stage where we believe we NEED to save the planet and that we actually can !! and then have created the most absurd of ideology using climate change. a natural event that has been affected by so many other factors far more volatile than human activities since it first started spinning

Loving the strategy to meld capitalism. Imagine cooperative ownerships and subsidiary with capitalist businesses all over the world! Great idea

he cooked at the end - exposing the paternalism of of so called progressives from the developed world

The planet Earth is fine. Humanity has multiple big problems. Far too many people to be fed without modern industrial agriculture, that requires fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are in quite rapid depletion but alternatives are not available without fossil fuels to mine, refine, and transport the materials for the mass infrastructure that is low emissions energy. Meaning global warming will continue to accelerate.

End of Story! Degrowth needs to start and end with the Capitalist west! The Obama Rhetoric of telling the global /south they can't have a/c is just bullshit.

no it cannot you damn communists

People not even know what capitalism and colonialism mean! Neverless, they defend it.

Muchas gracias, Jason Hickel, estos tipos se llevaron una paliza

Norway been put in the spotlight!

I have debated with so many idiots about eventually stopping the clock rhat counts how many births our species has. They can't envision such a thing.

When will people come to their senses and realize we can't forever increase our numbers without ruining the small, blue planet we're on?

If a corporation is making a product no one wants, people won't buy it and the corporation will make another product they hope will sale. Your premise we have no control over products is straight up wrong.

Regrowth coupled with limitarianism may change the world for the better.

Good & necessary points, but as a Norwegian - this hopeful imaginary externalises financialisation. The trancendent ownership of “nominal values” making up a non-productive and growing (!) sector of every global north economy. Especially in rich Norway. It’s like a foggy mirror of Marx’s focus on “ownership of means of production”, as financial means only produce _more_ financial intangibles as capital. We have legislated these intangibles into commodities - commodities that can’t even be “consumed”, as they are legal and social constructs of no material existence - like a depreciating (value loss) building going up in price. However, financial instruments and transactions themselves consume vast amounts of energy. That “math” can’t add up ecologically or socially whether you vote “blue or red” - can it? 🤓

Thank you all. Thank you Jason Hickel.

Upgrade to the hydrogen economy. It is a very convenient, and cash producing step to take.

She slips and call normal inteligent people "oponents"!!! at 3:45

I do not know about the stupid notion of "degrowth" what is a fact is the serious global infection of "debraining"

It’s good that the moderators asked hard questions, which I felt Jason gave good answers to. Judging by the moderator’s questions and the comments in here, there seems to be a human tendency to be dubious of new ways we might structure society in a healthier way that works for everyone. But we are running out of time. We can either choose to adopt a better way now together, or wait and arrive through a more painful route.

I wish Holly had had more opportunity to interview Jason. This was advertised as a student-led interview, but the professor took up the lion's share of the time. The questions she posed were more substantive than the professor's, incidentally.

I find myself confused about the euphoric reviews about this professor: it sound like a primary example of somebody putting himself into mud up till the neck with prosaic superficial responses and then being unable to evade a self-made trap in any other way but using even more extensively prosaic peripheral arguments. The student’s questions were quite straight and interesting, but I may dare say I found myself not having the same impression from the response of the guest: it sounded rhetoric, generalized and full of common says while never truly arriving to punctually, precisely and insightfully reply to the questions to their core (it seemed to me the host shared the same feeling: I.e. 51:13 ). Ive been listening to any single speech of somebody like Yanis Varoufakis, often debating and lecturing about the very same topics and replying to very similar questions, and I may dare say that liking or disliking the guy, his political ideas and whatnot, his response are always laser focused and deeply insightful. I don’t know professor hickel, so I’m not a liker nor disliker neither of him or his work, but from this unique interview I’ve heard with him as a guest I can’t quite comprehend nor share the enthusiasm about his speech. May I ask to kindly suggest me some interviews/lectures from this guy where I may eventually appreciate his insights and thoughts to a full extend ? Thanks. That said I thanks the host for holding this meeting and making some meaningful points and interesting questions.

His ideas are anti humanist, and toxic.

His laughing as he gives his answers - as if what he's saying is so evidently and indisputably true - is just nauseating. So who will decide what production and consumption is superfluous...him?

great

Attempting to live in fantasyland leads to nightmares. Take advice from a person that understands neither economics nor the environment and you will get a horrible outcome. Ask any communist country.

I love how she accidentally demonstrates how stupid this idea is by pointing out that people were making the same claims 50 years ago and nothing they said turned out to be true

He should be offered the post as our foreign minister.

UNLESS RICH COUNTRIES ADOPT A PLANNED ECONOMY, DEGROWTH IS NOT POSSIBLE. THE PLUTOCRACY WILL NOT ALLOW A PLANNED ECONOMY THAT LIMITS GREED. PLUTOCRACY RULES, FOLKS. SO DREAM ON.

Rich nations ...excellent starting point.

"klimakrisen" interessant ord som åpenbart låter bra for folk som er så naive at de tror det media og de betalte ekspertene hevder. Vi vet at om "klimakrisen" er det delte meninger om og vi vet at jorden og sivilisasjoner har gjennomgått helt andre forhold enn dagens, da vi finner for eksempel byer under havet. Så det med "klimakrisen" er for organisasjoner som stort sett er så useriøse at deres formål er å melke statene for midler for unyttige formål. Norge har fått nytt sett av sabotører. Dessverre er politikere og administrasjon for naive til hva som foregår når slike "miljøvernere" har funnet ut hva hele samfunnet må gjøre. De dikterer premisset og forteller alle hva vi skal mene og gjøre.

When is all of this capitalist blather going to advocate mandatory accounting in the schools? Search Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations for "read, write and account". Smith used the word 'education' Eighty Times.

GDP is Grossly Distorted Propaganda What is Net Domestic Product? What happened to the depreciation of durable consumer goods in the NDP equation? How does planned obsolescence affect GDP?

This man is incredible. Check out his interviews on the Macro n Cheese podcast. Amazing work!!

He is clever to not speak of POPULATION OVERSHOOT even once?

why does the person have to play flute, that too with recorded birds and not real ones chirping. I mean how cool is Norway. However, Thanks for the lecture and symposium. Kudos to Jason Hickel.

Lol degrowth is just eugenics dressed up differently. The problem is the current mode of operation and who controls the means of production. You guys are all smart enough to know this really. This guy Hickel is just another guy selling you a product in the marketplace of ideas. And he's selling them like hot cakes! Doesn't he make you feel smart for saying something you already knew to be true? 🤔

The word Ecology itself has disappeared from every major environmental organization, policy, plan, expert reports and even the IPCC. For that every reason, industrial civilization is sure to collapse, for it's sheer arrogance and infinite growth (overshoot - also a missing word here)

Arne Næss was an amazing human... However the stupid lady compares him, of all people, to Elizabeth II who a thug queen, english robber baroness.

The only thing that can save this planet is to imprison all these degrowth frauds and crooks pretending to protect the future...

Capitalism and the free market are very different things. Capitalism is about the CEO class gaining advantage over all other sectors, including over small and institutional shareholders. Create systems where CEO candidates compete for their jobs in open auction rather than by crony hiring by boards of directors and capitalism starts its decline.

Replacing power fossil fuel power plants with small modular reactors is growth. Lab grown meat production is growth. Replacing gasoline powered cars with tethered electric is growth. Factory built modular homes is growth. Ramping up hydroponics, possibly with in home environmental systems, is growth. Shifting from weapons production to space exploration is growth. More public rail is growth. Raising living standards is growth. Employee-owned cooperatives converting overseas divisions and supply chains to employee ownership and control with equivalent standards of living to American employee owners is growth. Making more doctors takes growth. Expanded vacation infrastructure requires growth. There are also ways to reform raise some taxes (and scrap others), with significant tax savings for sales to ESOPs and cooperatives. Specifics. Don't promise to shut down industries. Say how you would build new ones. Saying what "should" happen without saying how, with that how being desirable, sounds nice and wins awards, but does nothing unless it is seen as an opportunity.

No, the public are Realists and will accept workable solutions. Hickel's will not. Tethered Electric cars will solve climate. Cooperativism will take care of capitalism without loss of standard of living.

The path to wealth and prosperity have been laid out for all to see. Democratic principles like free and fair elections, personal freedom and liberty, free speech, a free press, property rights, human rights, a separate judiciary, rule of law, freedom of religion, secular government and Capitalism.

Anthropocene is the right word and humans are in overshoot, {William R Rees}

Social controls, rationing and confiscatory economics and taxation...

There is no arguments against what Jason is suggesting.. But that's not why it won't happen... It won't happen because the left and the greens are weak undiscplined over emotional and lack focus and determination to see the project to its end Big Business and the right wing ecosystem will not give up anything there are no arguments that will persuade them, they simply have to be out worked by a mature disciplined movement that can strategize over decades and remain focused for the long term... If we form this movement with these characteristics then Jason 's vision might be achievable... I hope i am wrong but we've had the climate data on our side for 40 years and emissions are still growing exponentially and COP 28 has shown the scale of the corruption and how fundamental the change is and this requires a broad disciplined socially licensed movement that wins the arguments on the grounds used by the economists and big business etc... The arguments have to go mainstream and embody the real politik of the situation.
