Adbusters editor Micah White interviewed for Q Ideas

How do we recognize the mental toxins in our world that fight against being truly human?
Adbusters editor Micah White says we must "celebrate a new aesthetic that cherishes subsistence over surplus, local over national and play over work." The myth of consumerism is that 'more is better'. "But to this lie, we will with great strength respond that only by consuming less can we live more."
