Ok ok, but let's get beyond this techno-hopium -- and really soon, too. This tech has HUGE environmental and political costs. (Think global flexible regimes of accumulation.) So, if we're authentically concerned, then...

Controlled-environment survival scenarios are farce. All that tech requires huge investment, available technology, tools and energy, people, lots of people but it can't reliably produce food without LOTS of chemicals. Nope. More fantasy and hopium. #LifestyleChange #SustainableLifestyle #DeepConservation #SustainableCommunities #ResilientCommunities #TransitionTowns #MutualAid #CareForEarth #permaculture
Fellow boomers, we can't possibly understand the emotions that subsequent Generations are experiencing as they face the deteriorating Planet we have left them after taking the best for ourselves. Can you imagine being 25 years old and marginally literate and looking around at this world and imagining your future? Ugh.

And for you science buffs, are you familiar with the fascinating concepts of "positive feedback loops" and "thresholds"? I have a hunch that we will be hearing more about these intriguing ideas In the future. (I think that's the near future.)

Me thinx it's high time to build the social pressure for dealing with this calamity in front of us (planetary heating + massive species extinction + everything else). So... pound by pound, let the pressure build. It's time to raise the psychological cost of ignoring this monster. Every hour. Every day.

@hydroponictrash This technology might benefit me greatly this summer. Power is limited (small photovoltaic) so I run a small fan, but my crooked wooden house bakes in the sun.

Since this video was released (7 years ago), we've learned again and again that the globe is warming much faster than we predicted. Recently Hansen et.al. concluded that ~4°C is inevitable in the short loop and 10+°C is inevitable in the long loop. Not looking so good for designer tomatoes. Too late? Still must press on.

@BrentToderian Imagine a sustainable, empathetic society. Currently, it's about "the turning away." The turning away from vulnerable people. The turning away from our own natures (towards alienation). The turning away from our living planet.

Restructuring everyday lives to healthy, safe, fun sustainable lifestyles with meaningful relationships, robust community-level production, strong democracy and serious restraint on capitalist bullies.

Thanks for doing what you do! I'm over here working on developing pathways for authentic #lifestylechange. But... LOTS of denial and dawdling out there. Where's the support from our political leadership? I guess that comes later? Heh heh. Better come sooner.

Well... I guess we really should try (authentically). But, it seems that ~4°C is baked into the short loop and ~10°C into the long loop (according to recent Hansen et al). So... ack. Still... gotta try. Perennial woodies, more climax forests, etc and of course the obvious:

Well, golly. Who woulda thunk?

Thanks for mentioning indicators. Social and environmental indicators are key to community assessment, community development assessment and community development planning. They logically follow from planning (well-being) goals.

@uxmark Your design weblog site for Connolly Design is quite good. Thanks doing that stuff. GIS, too!! I use QGIS for my forestry work and permaculture design.

@bethsawin I sure wish someone in the admin would say it out loud: lifestyle change. Turns out "they" (we) were wrong. The American Way of Life is negotiable, and biology and physics are the negotiators.

@g1comics @bethsawin Yes, yes... the simple conservation measures we can take. Plus, we look really cool in our warmies sans plastic when we can. I like to warm a flagstone on the wood stove and lay it under the blankets before I call in for the night. But, hot water bottles do the trick, too. #nowORnever #lifestylechange #sustainablelifestyle #deepconservation #sustainablecommunities #resilientcommunities #transitiontowns #closingloops #mutualaid #careforearth #permaculture #makeitREAL
@jblue Greetings! You're posting some cool content. I'm involved with #permaculture #ecologicalag #designedecosystems #regenerativeag #lifestylechange #sustainablelifestyle #deepconservation #sustainablecommunities #resilientcommunities #transitiontowns #closingloops #mutualaid #careforearth #ecologicalforestry #ecologicalrestoration #
A big payoff for adopting designed sustainable communities is the aesthetics. Having lived austerely for decades now I can attest that the aesthetic pay-off offsets the austerity with an ethical (fuzzy warms) pay-off. Either way, status quo is killing the planet and us.
