This Thursday: Taking on the American uber-fantasy (endless growth)



 Another outstanding offering from the good folks behind the Salem Progressive Film Series.

tappedThursday, Jan 12, 2012     7 p.m.
How do we become a sustainable civilization? We are addicted to unending growth in a world that has limits.  Individual and public policy decisions today are formed by a powerful, pro-growth cultural bias.  We worship at the Church of Growth Everlasting. Undeterred by the facts, we’re on a collision course powered by denial and the myth that growth brings prosperity.  This film examines the cultural barriers that prevent us from reacting rationally to the evidence that current levels of population and consumption are unsustainable.
