Post Carbon Fellow Bill Rees was asked about the upcoming "De-growth" in Vancouver which he helped plan.
From the article:
The UBC professor who pioneered ecological-footprint analysis says he helped plan the upcoming De-Growth Vancouver conference because reversing economic growth is the only option for saving the planet.
“De-growth is going to be the major issue of the century,” Bill Rees, who’s with the school of community and regional planning, told the Straight by phone.
Rees will be out of town and won’t be able to attend the event, but De-Growth Vancouver cofounder Conrad Schmidt, founder of the Work Less Party, told the Straight that both B.C. Green party leader Jane Sterk and developer Richard Wozny are on one of the panels. The two will speak about how a de-growth city would look.
“Everyone is starting to realize you cannot have continued exponential economic growth,” Schmidt said by phone. “Even the developers are getting it. The question now is what do we do about it.”
