PART 1: "Jevons Effect"
The principle of continuous growth which
rule our economy have brought us here.
But is there a different path?
What if we used our gains in productivity to
slow down ? We could work less and produce less.
It would also mean consuming less.
If you like the film please forward this website
to a world that desperately needs some
slowing down.

Working less and consuming less is an option open to most people in capitalist countries. The people choose instead to work more and consume more.
There are really only 2 situations were people seem to reduce their consumption, in a recession or when they are made to do so by force. Neither has ever been improvement.
