our lousy assistance to ourselves

We’ve used our very best minds in politics, economics, business and science to create a self made disaster that threatens to destroy much of human life on earth. —John Veitch

The world that is.

“The planet Earth has it’s own system.

“People have never understood it. Once upon a time it was so mysterious that people used all sorts of superstitions and ritual….”

The world as we see it.

“Your world view dictates what you think is important, what questions you can ask, and what you imagine is reliable evidence.”

To quote the Club of Rome:

“The classical models and strategies of development are destroying the environment, overusing resources, generation widening disparities and leaving billions excluded from the benefits of progress. … We are facing a social transformation and level of upheaval that is historic in it’s proportions and uncertain in it’s outcomes.”
