Climate protection is a task for humanity, and all we can think of are market solutions. The economist Elmar Altvater has accurately articulated our helpless reaction to perhaps the greatest challenge of our time. Not only established politics but also a large part of the ecological scene relies on a routine continuation of the status quo. With the help of renewable energies and constant innovation, our economy is expected to continue growing—ecologically sustainable, of course. The eco-socialist Bruno Kern thoroughly exposes this illusion. He questions not only capitalism with its inherent imperatives for profit but also industrial society itself! Industrial disarmament is the order of the day; less consumption instead of profit at any cost. The widely spread myth of green growth, which tries to convince us that there is a decoupling of economic growth from resource and energy consumption, ultimately serves only to evade the real political challenge. Namely, the question: How do we create a solidarity-based society that is willing to get by with significantly fewer material resources?.
