Comin’ in for a Landing

Welcome to another edition of TF’s coverage of humanity’s trajectory following our step off the ledge. We begin to look at what happens when the unstoppable force of capital’s need to grow smashes into the immovable object of hard limits on economic growth in the long term. Riley, Alice, and Milo discuss what the Economist’s calls “The 90% Economy,” and ponder just what world we will emerge into.
