The Story of More: The Consumption Trap — Why Efficiency Isn't Saving Us
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores The Story of More by Hope Jahren as a systems-level analysis of global consumption systems.
The discussion examines:
• incentive structures
• institutional persistence
• feedback loops
• distribution systems
• ecological constraints
• structural outcomes
The episode investigates why technological efficiency frequently expands consumption instead of reducing it and why abundance can coexist with persistent scarcity outcomes.
