Richard Murphy, who previously advocated green growth, gets there in the end.
"The real challenge we face is not how to restart a growth engine that has already driven us to the edge of environmental collapse. It is how to redesign the economy so that the resources we already have are used to meet human and ecological needs.
Growth is not coming back — and nor should our democracy depend upon it."

Growth is not coming back — and nor should our democracy depend upon it
Martin Wolf has (once again) declared in the Financial Times that the fate of democracy rests on economic growth. As he said, in advance of the Budget: [Reeves'] first priority must be to get whatever growth she can.  Growth made democracy possible, he claims, and only growth can now save it, in...

Last photos from that day in the #schwarzwald . We were pretty surprised when we came to the part shown in the last photo. The #moss was so thick there - like a real carpet! I've never seen such before. I found it pretty hard to get a photo that pays the situation justice. I hope it works for …

Nestled deep within a lush, verdant forest, this narrow trail invites hikers into a world of tranquil solitude and natural beauty. The path, a winding ribbon of earthy brown, is gently bordered by moss-covered rocks and boulders, their vibrant green hues suggesting centuries of undisturbed growth. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy above, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow across the forest floor, where fallen leaves and pine needles create a soft, rustling carpet.
Moss blankets the forest floor and climbs up the sides of ancient trees, its vivid green hues contrasting beautifully with the darker bark and scattered brown leaves. Ferns, delicate and intricate, emerge from the undergrowth, their fronds swaying gently in the light forest breeze. A small, trickling stream crosses the path, its rocky bed glistening with moisture, adding a soothing soundtrack to the tranquil scene.
Nestled deep within an ancient forest, this enchanting trail winds its way through a lush, green sanctuary. The path, a narrow ribbon of earthy brown, is softly bordered by vibrant moss-covered mounds that seem to glow with an almost magical luminescence. The moss, a rich emerald green, blankets the rocks and ground, creating a plush carpet that adds to the forest's serene ambiance. Towering trees, their trunks dark and sturdy, rise majestically on either side of the trail, their branches weav…

Top OECD performers in green growth - an FOI model analysis
With rising concerns about climate change, the issue of green growth have been growing in importance. The aim of this study is to establish a measurement method for green growth, and to identify the best performing countries in this field. The Future, Outside, and Inside (FOI) development model was used to measure the performance of the 38 OECD countries. Based on their 2019-20 scores, the countries that are top performers in green growth are the members of the so called Welfare-participatory c…

EU bets on nature-based products to increase domestic competitiveness
Nature-based products such as biofuels and bioplastics will be looked to as drivers of green growth under a recently announced bioeconomy strategy, but critics are wary of overexploitation.

One more photo stop that we did after quite a rain pour in the #schwarzwald.
We came up this path when I turned around and saw the sun beams through the canopy. At first I was really stunned to be honest as I hardly *ever* see such scenes!
Strangely I took ways less photos than might have been appropriate, but those two I found worth sharing.
Some more story about them:

The image shows the sun shining through a dense forest, with rays of sunlight filtering through the leaves of the trees. The forest is bathed in a warm, golden light, creating a serene and magical atmosphere. The trees are tall and majestic, their dark silhouettes contrasting against the bright sunlight. The scene is peaceful and tranquil, with a hint of mist or fog adding to the ethereal quality of the setting. The colors are predominantly black, with accents of a rich, earthy green. This capt…

So incredibly angry at Mark Carney, who I thought, with all his UN "climate tzar" cred, would be able to bridge the divide between industry and co2 emissions.
Turns out, he is just an oily vassal for complete climate and carbon capitulation.
Alberta's oil industry is "very happy" acording to Alberta Premier Smith's Chief of Staff.
It's full steam ahead for carbon emissions. They have what they believe is a green light for massive growth.
