creating an more efficient sustainable economy is critically linked to building more democratic institutions not less! It is what the authoritarians across the less free world are worried about and hence their focus on ensuring the Trump regime stays in power forever.

Climate knowledge has been taken hostage to prevent climate action.
“It didn’t happen by accident. It’s the product of a deliberate and systematic assault on knowledge by some of the richest people on Earth. Preventing climate breakdown means protecting ourselves from the storm of lies.”

Catastrophic nature loss is at least as serious a problem as climate breakdown, but only gets a fraction of the (woefully inadequate) attention.

distraction from the real issues and problems has always been a social lubricant of power and control. every waking moment has been analyzed, advertised, and beaten to death by the massive hammers of those in charge- yet -the choice to swing those hammers is usually brought on by the self.
