In summary: • The US trade deficit = extreme consumption • Reducing consumption could fix the problem without tariffs, while also reducing waste and climate change • A post-growth economy could improve quality of life What do you think? Could the US live better with less?

To put things in perspective: The US trade deficit is 3-4% of GDP. So if Americans just consumed 1% less stuff per year, then by the end of Trump's term in office, the problem would be solved!

Less consumption = fewer imports = smaller trade deficit. It also means: • Less waste and resource depletion • Lower CO2 emissions from production and shipping • More resilience We chase economic growth at all costs. But what if we prioritised human wellbeing instead?

The US trade deficit is about $1 trillion per year—roughly 3-4% of GDP. This means Americans buy $1T more in goods and services from abroad than they sell. Most of that is stuff: electronics, cars, fast fashion, etc. What if Americans just... bought less?

Trump has started a trade war to try to reduce the US trade deficit. But there's a much simpler way to fix the deficit: 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀. Reducing consumption would eliminate the trade deficit, reduce environmental pressure, and improve quality of live. Let's dive in. 🧵

Great piece by @timparrique on Savin & van den Bergh's dodgy review of degrowth, which excludes my work: "Not including [O'Neill et al.] in a literature review of the field would be like reviewing science fiction films without mentioning Star Wars." 😅 timotheeparrique.com/a-response-to-…
