Reply to comment by RatifyGuy1776 in What do you think about degrowth? by bomprimo
Maybe it's because "degrowth" is somewhat popular in German-speaking Europe, and maybe that's not the case anywhere else. But either way, it seems odd to me that you'd rather assume it's about "having less people and less technology" than do a quick search to find out:
Degrowth is a term used for both a political, economic, and social movement as well as a set of theories that critiques the paradigm of economic growth.

Okay, I can see how this can be different. Most of our consumption is currently devoted to war, so it's fair to say we can bring it down significantly without sacrificing much. The word without this context really carries dire implications, so it confused me.
