Join Degrowth Ballarat at a community screening of this documentary!Summary
Will the renewable transition save us from the ecological crisis? The Cost of Growth explores uncomfortable realities about 'green growth' and invites us to look harder at our assumptions about the nature of growth.
The Cost of Growth is a powerful documentary showing grassroots resistance and solidarity in organising real alternatives to powerful elites, shameful inequities and environmental destruction. Hear from well known activists – Greta Thunberg, Jason Hickel, Brototi Roy and more.
The film runs for 90 minutes and will be followed by audience discussion, hosted by Degrowth Ballarat, part of Degrowth Network Australia.
