"Socialism and Degrowth aren't the same thing" The Degrowth movement with Mark Burton

The pandemic gripping the world has put Capitalism back into one of it's classic cardiac arrests.

We are joined by Mark Burton from Steady State Manchester to discuss the limits of Growth, how Climate Breakdown and Growth interlock and how Degrowth can save us from disaster capitalism.
