[ezcol_1third]

Producer: Salisbury Conservation Committee[/ezcol_1third] [ezcol_2third_end]Join ecological economist Dr. Jon Erickson for a presentation and conversation at the Salisbury Congregational Church.

Dr. Erickson  discusses the myth of infinite growth and the necessary steps toward a more resilient, fair, and (dare we say) smaller economy. He also explains how making the needed changes in our outdated economic models will make our lives and the lives of our children and grandchildren healthier and happier and help us address climate change at the same time.

Recorded by the Salisbury Conservation Committee.
