sustainability for the future should rely on what has worked in the past and away from more production.
for my project, i want to compare how less-developed countries (specifically india) produce a significantly smaller carbon footprint in comparison to more developed countries (specifically america). i also want to compare how traditional indian practices are far more sustainable in comparison to what is being done today. the category my project falls under is building a better future, but i kind of want to flip the question into going back to the past is a better future. we do not really to advance in technology all the time to create a more sustainable way of living. in fact, i argue it is much better to resort to a simpler and older way of living instead of in a culture of consumption.
