Understanding where we need to go in the long term can change the nature of the debate in the short term.

We need to build a culture that recognizes sufficiency.

Forecasting can be useful, but when we want to chart a path to a truly sustainable future, backcasting seems like the way to go.

On Backcasting So many vested interests, so many points of view, it’s hard to get agreement on what we ought to do. Progress gets more difficult as things get more complex, we get bogged down, we can’t agree on what we might do next. Instead of solving problems, we need to look ahead far enough that everyone involved right now is dead. And if we jointly understand the kind of world we need finding our way forward is more likely to succeed.

Another poem from the pile. Perhaps it is referring to perpetual economic growth...?

The main problem is not our nature, it is our culture.

On Climate Change Denial For some a tap is all it takes to get their full attention Others seem to need a slap to trigger comprehension The slaps are coming quickly now, much worse is yet to come, if you can’t see what’s going on you really must be dumb.
