Abstrakt
The values which people hold are influencing not only present behaviour, but also our future. Research conducted by Ronald Inglehart in the second half of the 20th century tried to capture the shift from material to post-material values in economically developed and prosperous countries. This leads us to the principal dilemma. How to maintain world ecosystems and the human environment in reasonable quality in times of growing consumption needs and desires of more than eight billion people? The threat of climate change brought James Lovelock, creator of the Gaia hypothesis, to formulate “sustainable retreat” as an alternative to sustainable development. The concept of “degrowth” is an alternative idea aimed at unsustainable human activities. Degrowth seems to be similar to the “zero growth” idea proposed in the first report to the Club of Rome Limits to Growth in 1972. We are entering times of turbulent change. Therefore, it makes sense to be interested in the future. In this contribution we suggest seven ideas for alternative scenarios of the future.
