Look down, we stand on the bones of thousands of generations past.
Look up, an empty sky; Fermi's potential dark future.
We stand on the cusp but we are busy manipulating each other to the death of the planet.
We instinctively look outwardly for solutions. Startup culture prophets gaslight us with hype cycles of ecomodern salvation, tempting us with electric vehicles and promises of space but here back on earth Jevons Paradox and and inequality keep us grounded.
To solve our issues we need to be mindful of our own psychopharmacology and out: popular delusions, cognitive biases, heuristics and psychological fallacies.To see objectively that we are in a climate crisis which is likely to lead to a collapse as we are living in a closed system and expecting infinite growth, the dominant organisation are corporates which do not take in to account externalities.100 corporation cause 71% of industrial emissions[1].
Given our short timeline, we cannot nudge this issue into submission. We need to come together and through transparent political action cut CO2 emissions not on the basis of net zero but by burning zero. It's a long road and there are lots of further ideas but if you want to get involved contact us.
