  1. CW: Progress WINS vs Understanding en masse - Is Humanity Fatally Successful ? #Quote

    Progress without understanding (Progress wins en masse) #Quote

    Progress without understanding,,, basically #Degrowth needed

    "Progress" always wins en masse...

    💬 " William Rees wrote in “Is Humanity Fatally Successful ?” or as Albert Bartlett says, “to understand the #exponential function.” This shows the impossibility of achieving a “critical mass” of public understanding in time to accomplish all but the most minuscule attempts at population control, resource sustenance and biosphere caring necessary for our continued (sustainable) survival. ”

    Nothing good can survive #overpopulation.

    Habitats cannot survive it,
    Privacy cannot survive it,
    Compassion cannot survive it.

    Have you seen #AlbertBartlett's 1999 Arithmetic, Population and Energy lecture?

    Watch it to the end, the prison we have allowed them to build for us.

    Have you seen Arithmetic, Population and Energy #lecture by Dr #AlbertBartlett.

    /watch?v=sI1C9DyIi_8

    It should be torrenting from every #peertube instance, tracker website, and #I2P node…

    …along with a few other videos.

    Its complimentary to Rich Man's Trick, if you've seen that (ie. It excels in the one area RMT falters slightly).

    Hi Vidak,

    There is a tendency on a so-called left to think, "if we can only just sing koombaya together or adopt this #technofix life all will be okay", this is #nihalism because everyone must then prescribe to that, eliminating all diversity and resiliency.

    Please see #AlbertBartlett's lecture, we shared it previously.

    Do you have Prof. Michael Parenti's #WarOnYugoslavia lecture in your collection? We think its the second most important #lecture ever today, after only #AlbertBartlett's lecture, #ArithmeticPopulationAndEnergy.

  13. Hi Richard,

    We realise Bartlett is a fairly common surname but we must ask, is there any relation to the great #AlbertBartlett of Boulder, #Colorado, who would give great lectures on the problem of #exponentialGrowth?
