Es ist völlig belanglos, welche Figur im Kanzleramt sitzt! Der fortschreitende Verlust an Lebensqualität der Vielen wird weitergehen, weil er fest in die Regeln eingeschrieben ist, die die CDU, egal unter welchem Kanzlerdarsteller, mit Klauen und Zähnen und bis auf den letzten Tropfen Blut verteidigen wird.
Es wird nie mehr ein Wirtschaftswachstum wie nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg geben, weil die planetaren Grenzen es unmöglich machen und weil es entgegen der ökonomischen Theorie ein "genug" gibt. Der ständig wachsende Reichtum der besitzenden Klasse muss also durch Umverteilung zustande kommen. Der Mietenwahnsinn, eskalierende Preise und zunehmend dysfunktionale Infrastruktur sind Zeichen dieser Plünderung.
Um das zu stoppen, riecht es nicht, den zugegeben maximal inkompetenten Kanzlerdarsteller auszutauschen, sondern es braucht eine völlig andere Politik. Diese kann nur aus der Zivilgesellschaft kommen, denn keine Partei wird sich trauen, ein solch heißes Eisen anzufassen.

Human #wellbeing on a #FinitePlanet towards 2100: new study shows humanity at a crossroads
A new paper by members of Earth4All’s scientific advisory team published today in Global Sustainability models two starkly different futures for humanity this century: one defined by escalating crises compounded by rising social tension, the other by a bold transformation towards wellbeing for all. The findings emphasise the importance of considering wellbeing and social cohesion when studying how planetary risks, inequality and social tensions interact.
4 July 2025
Excerpt: "Boost social cohesion and wellbeing for successful climate action
"A key innovation of the study is the introduction of two novel indices: social tension and wellbeing. This enabled the researchers to model not just the complex interactions between economic and #environmental factors in the two scenarios, but also include social feedback loops capturing trust, public investment, and political capacity. The modelling results suggests that rising #inequality and environmental degradation fuel social tensions, which in turn reduce governments’ capacity to implement the long-term policies needed to address existential risks linked to climate change and other planetary boundaries.
" 'By integrating a social tension index and a wellbeing index, we have been able to highlight the importance of social dynamics in climate scenarios,' explained co-author #NathalieSpittler of #BOKUUniversity. 'Achieving climate goals is not just a question of technological and economic developments. If wellbeing declines and social tensions rise, this creates a negative feedback loop where the very conditions needed for transformational change become harder to achieve.'
"Conversely, the study suggests that actions to reduce inequality and increase #SocialCohesion and wellbeing are key if governments want to implement policy shifts on #climate and other global issues."

#Earth4All #Argentina: Young people confront today’s challenges through debate
At a time when social and environmental crises are deepening, this initiative shows that young people are not just aware of the challenges—they are ready to lead the transformation. The real challenge is to listen to them and make room for their voices in the creation of truly transformative public policies.
5 June 2025
"On 9 May, young people between the ages of 18 and 30 gathered simultaneously in #Córdoba, #BuenosAires, and #Tucumán to take part in the workshop 'Understanding the present to build the future we want,' part of the Earth4All Argentina National Engagement Strategy led by the #ClubOfRome – Argentinian Chapter.
"Organised in collaboration with #FundaciónAlimentaris and #JóvenesPorElClima, the workshop was part of the participatory process of the National Participation Program (NEP), an initiative aimed at gathering diagnostics, experiences, and proposals from local communities to influence public policy. Its goal is to collectively adapt the international Earth4All model to local realities. The model warns of the urgent need to move away from the current path, described as '#TooLittleTooLate,' and to move toward a '#GiantLeap' centred on #social and #EnvironmentalJustice. This transformative agenda is structured around five turnarounds: #EradicatingPoverty, #ReducingInequality, #EmpoweringWomen, transforming #FoodSystems, and driving the energy transition.
"The workshop brought together university students from the host cities, #grassroots and #EnvironmentalActivists, and civically engaged youth eager to influence #LocalPolicies and practices. Facilitated by Jóvenes por el Clima, the event was organized around two main dynamics: first, introducing the foundations and challenges of the Earth4All model; and second, mapping specific local issues and working in thematic groups aligned with the model’s five pillars, with the aim of #CoCreating concrete proposals grounded in the experiences and voices of #YoungPeople."
