THE CLUB OF ROME PODCAST

Almost thirty years after the end of apartheid, Black South Africans still fight for African liberation from colonial narratives. While previous generations struggled to end apartheid, younger generations now face the task of reimagining themselves, their communities, and the world. Mamphela Ramphele, The Club of Rome co-president and Nolita Mvunelo, The Club of Rome program manager discuss the need for intergenerational collaboration to combine the wisdom of older generations with the energy of younger ones. The need for social equity ties into the idea of ecological civilisations as an alternative to our current society. Ramphele and Mvunelo emphasise the need to consider freedom for all life, not just humans and see the Earth Charter as an opportunity to help build a new narrative for ecological civilisations.

All speakers in this event are coauthors of the book Limits and Beyond. They share their reflections on the relevance of the seminal report The Limits to Growth for the world of today and tomorrow. Looking back five decades later, what did the book mean at the time, what happened next, what did we do and not do, what did we learn and not learn, and what happens now and in the future?

The Limits to Growth modeled our planet’s interconnected systems and warned that if growth trends in population, industrialisation, resource use and pollution continued unchanged, we would reach and overshoot the carrying capacity of the Earth in the 21st century. We are now crossing tipping points and overloading our planet. Author Dennis Meadows, economist Jayati Ghosh, activist Luisa Neubauer, and scientist Johan Rockstrom reflect on 50 years since the report.
