Hate to be "reply bloke" but #FrugalAbundance comes from #SergeLatouche, Key #degrowth thinker - maybe even predates him. It's a good concept.
I have this Spanish translation from French and there's a newer book available too. Not available in English I believe.
@Lylamehta i like this very much, #Sufficiency! Very elegant, very good to think with (and more appealing than #Degrowth, if I am honest). I will read this, and more!
I also like #FrugalAbundance, coined here on Mastodon a little while back - not the same, but just wanted to bring the two together here.
Actually, #Sufficiency also chimes with #LeanLogic and #LeanEcobomics which @DarkOptimism introduced me too - really must read that, too
A very good article from #DegrowthLondon's Adrien Plomteaux.
Degrowth aims to achieve ‘frugal abundance’ - resilience

Based on an equally good, longer and well referenced academic article (open access). https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0921800924001204

#ClimateDiary We are visiting cousins and are at the local park.
I truly love public parks, seeing families, parties, so much shared happiness, everyone together outside. What more do you need.
PS: the soundscape too, all the children’s and adults’ voices - just wonderful
Now following #FrugalAbundance
#ClimateDiary It’s spring and it’s wonderful. So much joy, beauty, abundance, grandeur from nature, just there, in my otherwise mundane neighbourhood. Bluebells feel very early, along with everything else, but i also want to relish and be grateful for all whilst we still have it. #FrugalAbundance #Gratitude
#FollowTheMoney 23/n. Sorry- one more! Just to end on a less bleak note: seeing this toot reminded me that, of course, that billionaire military might AI bleak dystopia is real,IS our world, but there is actually an even bigger reality here every day, in all of us, since forever. Which is that the vast majority of us humans basically just want a simple life, with family, friends, barbecues (ok maybe not perfect example but since it’s here). #FrugalAbundance
You want one thing, but life gives you another. Make both work for you. My Baart wheat patch is being taken over by wild mustard!, I pulled a sprout and tasted it, not bad actually. A bowl of steamed greens later.
