Are we paying too high a price for 'easy'? When just about anything we want is a few taps away, why does it feel like something in our lives is missing? From dinner delivered to your door in minutes, to relationships mediated by apps, we've always valued innovations that make life easier. But every convenience has a cost; if we don't pay it, someone else has to. Against Convenience cuts through the noise, taking a hard look at the effect the services, apps and ideas that claim to simplify life are having on us as consumers and citizens: how do we spot convenience that is actually a false promise? How can we possibly live without them to live more sustainably?
