In today's world, we are plagued by environmental issues that endanger the existence of our planet. A number of initiatives and measures could probably address such issues, with or without the help of technology. However, ecological economists assert that limitless growth is not possible in a planet of finite limits and that there are alternatives to economic growth. What are these alternatives and how does the design and development of technology fit in? More importantly, how can technology fundamentally change the way our economies and societies function? In this work, I identify specific narratives of technology and explain how they foster more sustainable ways of development. These technological practices also conform to the larger narrative around alternate economic models and its underlying values.
