Crazy Town: Episode 114. Worried about the Future? Join the Club

Two Birds, One Stone: Collaboration in Rights of Nature and Ecocide Jurisprudence
If we truly seek to create relations of accountability and peace with our larger environment(s), jurisprudence needs to evolve beyond our current anthropocentric lens, and we can make it so by encouraging environmental movements to collaborate in developing ecocentric governance approaches.

Rethinking Supply Chains
Working at smaller scales means that the benefits of additional crop rotations, processing mills and artisan-micro-maker labs could be spread throughout the country, bringing greater resilience and livelihoods to rural areas. Energy demands would be lower and distributed as processing would be localised and require limited transport.

What social movements can learn from the ‘innovator’s dilemma’
If legacy organizations are structurally constrained, then we need to nurture the new actors — ones willing to fail, to iterate and to take risks that can help spark major transformations. For this reason, I believe it is worth looking in more detail at lessons we might apply from the innovator’s dilemma.

Running on Empty: The World’s Adaptation Failure is Fueling Climate Chaos
Without urgent and equitable action to fund adaptation, the next decade will not only test our infrastructure; it will test our humanity. Adaptation is not charity; it is climate justice. And justice delayed will only deepen the loss.
-by Jawad Khalid

Without urgent and equitable action to fund adaptation, the next decade will not only test our infrastructure; it will test our humanity. Adaptation is not charity; it is climate justice. And justice delayed will only deepen the loss.

Pluralistic: The ensh*ttification of labor
How would a job guarantee disensh*ttify the labor market? The job guarantee means a "permanent, publicly provided employment opportunity to anyone ready and willing to work, it establishes an effective floor for the entire labor market."

Post-Partisan Pathways: Why Food and Place Matter for Democracy
Post-partisan practice is not compromise; it’s a strategy for shared survival. Perhaps the path through this civilizational turning begins with a simpler question: What does this place need, and who else shares that need?

Novel Entities: An alternative way forward
Whatever the obstacles, the waste and pollution we have collectively spewed into the global environment in the pursuit of convenience and profit isn’t going anywhere without some form of decisive and assertive action; perhaps the mentality of into eternity is the solution which may match this challenge.
