The horror of Putin's hunger plan is so great that we have a hard time apprehending it. We also tend to forget how central food is to politics. Some historical examples can help. 4/16

RT @jasonhickel: I want to tell you a story about something fascinating that has happened in Japan.
An academic named Kohei Saito wrote a book about democratic "degrowth communism".
Everyone said it would be a flop, because degrowth "is a terrible word", and communism "is a terrible word too."
"To produce red meat for consumption in China, chemicals from Canada are sent to the US by road to grow fruits and vegetables, and to Brazil by ship to grow soybeans. These are used to feed livestock in China. Meanwhile, coal imported from Australia and Indonesia is used for manufacturing, along with machinery from Germany." https://www.carbonbrief.org/food-miles-have-larger-climate-impact-than-thought-study-suggests/

Gut aufbereitete Einführung zu Bürger:innenräten – mit vielen Literaturhinweisen und Links zu Beispielen (Extinction Rebellion UK, 2019). Habe sie gerade bei der Vorbereitung einer Extinction Rebellion-Veranstaltung zum österreichischen Klimarat gelesen.
Die Dimensionen des Themas Citizens Assemblies’/Bürger:innenräte gehen mir erst auf, seit ich für das Fazit einen Aufsatz über Ökologie und Demokratiekrise (PDF) geschrieben habe. Ich sehe die Chancen, mit den traditionellen demokratischen Instrumenten rechtzeitig auf die ökologischen Krisen zu reagieren, immer pessimistischer. Bisher haben diese Instrumente dramatisch versagt.

"Ökonomisch gesehen, handelt es sich beim Klimaproblem um ein Marktversagen: Fossile Brennstoffe werden verkauft, gekauft und benutzt. Es entstehen enorme Schäden und also enorme Kosten – für die keiner der Marktteilnehmer aufkommt."

Das US-Höchstgericht hat festgestellt, dass die US-Regierung (die EPA) Emissionen von Kraftwerken nicht mehr regulieren darf.
Wenn Unrecht zu Recht wird, dann schafft sich der Rechtsstaat selbst ab und wird zum Unrechtsstaat. Die US-Demokratie ist kaputt. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/06/30/politics/supreme-court-climate-change-epa-regulations/index.html https://twitter.com/jamieclimate/status/1542492105838403584

”We are approaching the precipice and I would strongly suggest that all of those who have not yet been greenwashed out of our senses to stand our ground. Do you not let them drag us another inch closer to the edge. Right now is where we stand our ground.”
Thank you Glastonbury!
