This has been coming for a long time. How are our systems and thinking so blind this kind of thing?
If we’re lucky it’ll take years if not decades to as a society stop this contamination.
These levels are just the beginning and we’ll look back on them as the good ol days when the levels were ‘low’.
- mistrial9 4y ago> our systems and thinking our systems and thinking have not been blind to it, there have been both serious and emotional objections at every single step. The ugly truth is that there is very little of "we" when it comes to control and making money.
- _spduchamp 4y agoWith a systems view, it appears governments are not able to be responsive enough to known environmental problems. This is a big part of why I advocate for electoral reform (in particular a citizens' assembly on electoral reform) to move to a proportional system where we as individuals have representation and can actually have our votes matter. Without citizens able to control their governments, it just leaves large corporate interests to control them, and blame everything on what people buy. We don't get long term systemic change that favours the well being of people without upgrading the electoral systems first.
