The global economy is collapsing at the same time the world is suffering 
the worse environmental crisis in over a million years.We hear from all 
over that the economy must "grow" while there is a deafening silence on 
the ecological catastrophe.

Must society destroy biodiversity, release even more toxic poisons, 
exhaust natural resources, and push global warming beyond the point of 
no return in order to have jobs?Is there another way to deal with the 
waste and destructiveness of this economy?

Could we actually shrink industrial production while providing jobs for 
everyone and a world safe for our grandchildren?Join your friends in 
discussing how we can build a new world.
