If we want to create healthy economies that protect rather than destroy local ecosystems, we will need to rewrite international trade rules in ways that include the social and ecological costs of production and consumptions, as well as trade. We need to protect local economies from ‘cheap’ imports made possible by hidden subsidies, externalising true costs, and outsourcing production (exploiting international inequality).

Activist, author and educator Daniel Christian Wahl speaks with Helena Norberg-Hodge (Director of Local Futures) about the multi-layered consequences of the pandemic on society. Daniel explains that to lessen the human impact on our planet, we need to decentralize the power of governments, and change our economic and monetary systems. He also emphasizes the importance of diversity in ensuring environmental stability. (Recorded on World Localization Day 2020, see more recordings from the day)
