Thinking about ‘enough’ can help us structure our thoughts about sufficiency and sustainability. Authors offer several ways a word of enough can materialize. A Universal Basic Income can prove to be a solution to both crisis of unemployment and unsustainability. Consuming in a world of enough would be shifting from the quantity that we consume to the quality of life we experience. Those solutions would require changing the systems toward embedding markets and more diverse economies, allowing for new forms of organizations to appear.
