This is a presentation for those concerned about
climate change, environmental destruction and social injustice.
It is my argument backed by the simplest of facts and logic that our money system is a Ponzi scheme requiring perpetually accelerating growth of debt to banks to prevent collapse in mass default. In turn, this mathematical necessity prevents "de-growth" and the creation of a conservation economy based on reduced consumption. This is a structural defect that requires fundamental change as proposed in the final chapter, elsewhere on this website and in Money as Debt 3.
