Lent, Fasting, & Degrowth

Lent is a time of fasting that gets co-opted by capitalism in all kinds of very gross ways and that sucks. But, what might fasting look like as a political idea? We might work this out by thinking about fasting in terms of degrowth in the face of climate change! 

Here are some of the books we talked about in this episode

Less is More: How Degrowth Will Save the World - Jason Hickel
Inventing the future -  Alex Williams and Nick Srnicek
