Class Preparation - No Post Required This Week BUT do come prepared to offer you scenarios (see below)

Our readings this week are divided into three groups. Degrowth focuses on the concept that an economy characterized by either a steady state or degrowth (reduction)in the economy is critical to economic sustainability. The Circular Economy poses an alternative solution in which metabolic principles that focus on building more efficient and inter-related chains in the extraction, supply, manufacture, transportion and consumption of products are the road to economic sustainability. Finally, sustainable (sometimes called green) consumption is a third proposed solution. This approach focuses on individual decision-making with regard to how much and what kinds of materials and services consumers choose to buy. There are positive and not-so-positive discussions of all three approaches in the Additional Resources. I will assign each approach to one team. After reading the required article for your approach, each member of your group should select at least one additional article from the Additional Resources listed for the approach you selected. Each individual in your group must select a diffrent article from the Additional Resources -- no duplication. It would be good to make sure that your group as a whole reads some positive articles and some critical articles from the Additional Resources list. As a group, make sure you include a variety of perspectives on the approach.

Your task this week is to consider how your assigned approach woould affect future generations over their lifetimes -- like babies being born as you read this. I strongly encourage you to think critically and apply yourself to imagining how implementing the approach you cover would affect the next generation not just in your country, but in countries that differ greatly today in terms of wealth, food security, health care, education, and all the other factors that go into constituting the kind of life one has. I want you to think critically -- not fall into criticism as tends to occur in discussions of sustainability. To that end, I expect you to be ready to offer both potential beneficial outcomes for new babies in different countries -- and potential harmful outcomes. Your job is not to defend or criticize an approach, but to try to think beyond personal experience and pre-existing ideas to develop new ideas of your own. Start with the key features of critical thinking. Identify the assumptions that underlie your "initial, emotional" reaction to each of these perspectives. Force yourself to think in new ways, and force yourself to consider both benefits and detriments of the perspective assigned to ou. I will give you an exercise to complete in class as a group. You will have time in class to complete the exercise. However, you do need to come to class with a strong list of insights about the future in a world where your approach was adopted.
