System Change Made Simple
A phrase often used at climate actions is ‘system change not climate change’. This podcast explores that idea. What kind of system are we living with now? How do systems of exploitation come about? What options for a new system make sense? How could we make system change happen? Join me as I explore these questions. Get excited as we work out how we might make a fresh start. It could be a good idea to start with the first of these podcasts 'Capitalism: A Ghost Story' from July 4th 2022 and go on from there.
System Change Made Simple
The Eco Crisis and the Capitalist Economy
Unpacking Schmachtenberger. This is the second in a set of podcasts on an interview that Nate Hagens (the Great Simplification) did with Daniel Schmachtenberger. In this podcast I talk about the places where Schmachtenberger explains our problems as coming out of the economic structures of our 'superorganism'. I kind of agree with this approach. I like it better than the approach that dominates Schamachtenberger's interview - the maximum power principle and evolution. The discussion ends up with a new take on Genesis and the Adam and Eve story. Why that story has seemed so plausible and what is wrong with it.
