Why We Need Degrowth in 2026
The thumbnail artist, Sean Bodley, can be found here: https://storyseedlibrary.org/authors/seanbodley/ In this Our Changing Climate climate change video essay, I explore why we need degrowth this year, the next year, and many years into the future. Specifically, I ask questions like what is degrowth? and why do we need degrowth? in order to truly understand how we might build a more ecologically harmonious world and escape the climate crisis. Additionally, I argue that degrowth can't exist under capitalism and that for degrowth to be truly successful, we need an ecosocialist degrowth. This podcast is best in video form!

Individual, consumer actions are not enough to prevent climate change. We must band together for collective action to prevent climate change and build an ecosocialist future.

How We Create True Abundance (Through Solarpunk, Ecosocialism, and Degrowth)
This podcast is best in video form! You can watch this one and 200+ more on the Our Changing Climate YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@OurChangingClimate In this Our Changing Climate climate change podcast, I explore how solarpunk, ecosocialism, and degrowth are the path towards true abundance. Specifically, I examine how Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson's politics of Abundance is mired in neoliberal, reformist, and austerity politics that won't ultimately bring the solarpunk-esque world that they envision in the first chapter of their book. We need to looking towards the visions of solarpunk for inspiration and steep ourselves in the political and economic strategies of ecosocialism and degrowth to find a path towards true abundance.

Specifically, I look at how American imperialism (and even more specifically, oil imperialism) and fossil fascism are driving the United States war machine into dangerous territory. But of course, Iran and its control of the Strait of Hormuz mean that a war with Iran has global ramifications--for oil, for helium, for fertilizer, and so much more.

Specifically, I dive into why consumerism is not actually the real cause of exploitation and the climate crisis, but instead a symptom of capitalism. Capitalist overproduction drives companies and corporations to create false needs and desires, which leads to overconsumption. We need to shift our attention away from consumerism and overconsumption and towards overproduction.

Specifically, I look at how capitalism can not exist in harmony with the natural world by investigating the concept of "metabolic rift." I then unpack what exactly ecosocialism is through the examples of various authors and activists. Ultimately, a planned, rational, anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, and deeply democratic mode of production is the only path forward for true harmony with the natural world. That economic formulation is ecosocialism.
