In fact, the IPCC special report on 1.5°C assumes that continued growth in GDP is necessary to support societal wellbeing and therefore rely on controversial amounts of carbon dioxide removal and/or unprecedented technological change to stay under the 1.5°C. What if instead of only focusing&nbsp;on efficiency we also explored sufficiency. By exploring post-growth scenarios where energy demand is drastically reduced and converging between the Global North and the Global South, achieving the 1.5°C target becomes much less risky and much more realistic.</p><p><br></p><p>🎓 To discuss these scenarios I have Lorenz Keysser, a researcher based at the Université de Lausanne. Lorenz has been exploring post-growth and degrowth policies for mitigating GHG emissions which are at the moment overlooked. As you will discover, Lorenz walks the talk and is involved in a variety of associations as well as has quite a unique story to share about a research stay he did.</p><p><br></p><p>🙏 Enjoy this episode and before you go, please help us improve our podcast by subscribing to your favourite app including Youtube, iTunes, Spotify, or Stitcher and leave us a comment 📝 with your thoughts.</p><p><br></p><p>👀 Youtube: https://youtu.be/R1MNMWKkDNY</p><p>👂 iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/be/podcast/circular-metabolism-podcast/id1455115320</p><p>👂 Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/circular-metabolism-podcast</p><p>👂 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/13qH9Oj4b0yF0dBidGAdFR</p><p>👂 Google: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5hY2FzdC5jb20vcHVibGljL3Nob3dzLzYwMWMyYzNlODg4NzQ3NjIyYmY5MzRlNg</p><p><br></p><p>#gdp #degrowth #postgrowth #ipcc #podcast</p>","author_name":"Aristide Athanassiadis"}
