Jeremy Lent: Ecocivilization"Lent’s goal is to synthesize dozens of proven and promising genres of existing projects and real-world activism. Some of these are daring and paradigm-breaking. Others operate well within the dominant market/state system but offer credible possibilities for post-capitalist transitions."
– David Bollier, host of the podcast 𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨

47/n #ClimateDiary A new report on #TippingPoints is a timely reminder - not that anyone here needs it - why #COP28 really does matter. Even while there are many uncertainties surely the #CautionaryPrinciple should be applied more than ever.
