Abstract: Irresponsible production and consumption are the root causes of the Earth Crisis, and the Global North is primarily at fault. As a matter of urgency, the Global North must accept responsibility for the injustices caused and make reparations. I have argued elsewhere that art, craft, and design education is uniquely placed to address Earth Crisis issues, because it powerfully combines both effective and affective modes of communication. Here, as a degrowth advocate, I will consider how degrowth thinking can inform art, craft, and design education in the Global North, giving special attention to the theme of (ir)responsible production and consumption.
