The Social Justice Outreach Team Third Wednesday Film Series at the Hendersonville UU Fellowship will screen “The Economics of Happiness” September 21.
This hopeful and exciting film is a project of the International Society for Ecology and Culture (SEC). It describes a world moving simultaneously in two opposing directions. As government and big business continue to push for growth in the form of increased global trade, we’re seeing an increase in climate chaos, senseless war, fundamentalism, financial volatility, income inequality, and the consolidation of corporate power. At the same time, people around the world are resisting those policies, demanding a re-regulation of both trade and finance.
