DEMOCRACY & EUROPE

We want to tear apart the way corporations and governments collude to make a profit at the expense of both people and planet. They must be held accountable and liable, for their impact on the climate and biodiversity loss. We want to rewind habits of unsustainable consumption and production to live within our planetary boundaries. The current economic system is driven by the lie that endless growth is both good and sustainable. We need to redefine how we think about our quality of life by rejecting endless consumption and changing our understanding of what we think of as a “basic right” and an “aspirational life”.
