Action
Take a Position
Sign our position on economic growth.  Convince friends, relatives, and acquaintances to do the same.  It's about sustainability, which means it's about having ample resources for our kids and grandkids.
There are many ways to get involved through CASSE or on your own to support a sustainable economy.  Please have a look at our ideas and feel free to share any of yours by contacting us.
Support Policies that Will Lead to a Steady State Economy
Policies at all levels of government, from local to national to international, are arrayed to promote (un)economic growth.  We can support saner and healthier policies that will lead to sustainability.
Be a "Steady Stater", a Citizen Rather Than a Consumer
A steady stater is someone who uses resources wisely and makes sure there will be enough left around for the kids and grandkids.  As citizens, steady staters are far more concerned with quality of life than quantity of material possessions -- after all, you can't take it with you!
Write a Letter to an Editor
CASSE has submitted quite a few letters to nationally prominent newspapers on subjects related to the steady state economy, and we encourage you to do the same.  We've made our letters available so you can use them as templates or inspiration for your own submissions.
Join the Discourse
One way to take action is to make your ideas public.  You can post your thoughts on our blog.  We also encourage you to get involved in the political scene.  There is a whole range of options, from writing your Congressional representative to supporting candidates with sustainability platforms to running for office yourself.  Another option is to get involved with a professional society or other organization.
Get Informed
Ask yourself - what is the purpose of the economy?  Check out our resources page.  Read books and articles, get a formal education, give us a call or send us e-mail.  Check our news and events for additional opportunities and resources.  Arrange to have one of our speakers give a lecture.  Take a look at our newsletter.
Donate
We're all pressed for time (yet another ailment stemming from the growth economy), so it's understandable that everyone can't undertake a bunch of personal actions to promote the steady state economy.  But if you still care about sustainability and maintaining the resource base for future generations, please consider a tax-exempt donation.  Added bonus:  you can rest assured that your expenditure won't be used to grow the economy!
