About this episode
If our capitalist economic model of perpetual growth was presented as a myth it would read something like the Sorcerer's Apprentice. As for our economic unit of measure, in a speech in 1968 Robert Kennedy described GDP as 'measuring everything except that which is worthwhile'. Are there economic models out there that might allow for a paradigm shift from the need for constant growth to a system that is more sustainable, regulated, and nurturing of life? In this episode David attempts to get his head around doughnut economics, de-growth and how our financial systems might be radically reimagined.
With guests Sir Tim Smit, Kate Raworth, David Barmes, Timothee Parrique, Inez Aponte and Sara Osterholzer.
