How [Bioregional] New Local ‘Green Economies’ Emerge From Degrowth-led Ecosocialism, Not Eco-capitalism.
A long-form essay on degrowth, permaculture, and the patient work of living within limits, written to be sat with, not skimmed.
What this is
Not a paper. A lived argument.
This is a single, deliberately non-academic essay: part philosophy, part field notes from the garden, part testimony. It argues that the way out of ecological collapse is not a greener engine of growth but a humane, deliberate degrowth: choosing what to keep alive, and tending it well.
Written over years of permaculture practice and quiet study, it reads like a long conversation with someone who has actually grown food, buried friends, and kept thinking anyway. Buy it once; it is yours to return to for life.
Here is a free excerpt of the essay.
There is no Climate Change on a planetary timeline of the Symbiocene… Only a ‘water-planet’ that is synonymous with ‘adaptation’. If all the ways the sociological environment [in the anthropocene] can exist are: being, form, mobility, and causality, then when Degrowth is relegated to causality, it is quantified as ‘Adaptation’ in the natural law to entropy, restoring balance to imbalance…
Post-pandemic, Ecosocialism, not Eco-capitalism, can exist as applied post-modernism, in an Era of Climate Change, not a Digital Age. Technology will be there. ‘Post-capitalism in plurality to sustainable capitalism’ on-paper is hypothetical to ‘meta-ethics in plurality to applied ethics [on-paper].’ ‘Politics is not where life happens…’
