  • Summary

  • If you know the term cognitive dissonance, it applies to ability of a person to hold entirely incompatible ideas in their head at the same time. If people can have it, so can a government. Take these two statements:

    1) We will work towards a sustainable future

    2) We will pursue economic growth

    The evidence is overwhelming: we cannot do both of these things because economic growth is the antithesis of sustainability. Pasting a veneer over this chasm are terms such as green growth and weightless economy.

    Jonathan Miller is the Director of Steady State ACT.
