It is not so much that we do not understand the problem(s) or even what needs to be changed.
Rather, we have yet to develop a working practical model for mobilizing the large contingent of humanity that is aware, wants change, and has no means for action., to execute a methods to force globalized institutions to stand down from their death dance while we re-organize into local/regional ecological communities to live in harmony with the Earth System while trying to repair, restore, regenerate the ecosystems upon which we depend for survival.
Awareness has to have some means of expression in action and the old ones--protest, street theater, and civil disobedience--are not enough. Organized networked action factions scaled up to global proportion are now the only plausible if extremely difficult to create, line of action left.
Hi Suzanne, there are those with more experience here than myself on the mechanics, but I am happy to help in any way I can. So as I am busy learning the very subject already, I will do some deeper digging for us both. Also I will be on the daily lookout for opportunities to push your concept. Inc encouraging others to do the same. N.B. My laptop is a German ISUS, which presents a small tech problem when using the "at" button in my substack posts / comments ..... my ISUS set up and Substack systems are not compatible..... Whatever I attempt fails...... So if you wish to discuss stuff with me direct here is my email in which I have simply written "at" You will need to delete it and insert the correct symbol.... Peace and success, Maurice. biz3d.art "at" gmail.com
I would urge anyone who has - or who is building a positive vision for all our futures, to either sub to Suzanne and/or to join the challenge she so provocatively proposes, here in para 5. Then to restack it. Peace, Maurice
Just asked Elliot Murray to help you, gave him your links. Sent you three messages this a.m. two have failed to reach you. Watch this space. Peace, Maurice
You say it so clearly and to the point. I want those who agree and have a vision for the future to speak up and join you. I’m with you.
Excellent essay, Suzanne.
I will have to look into "The Big Picture."

Lets hope your words are heard far and wide to bring change
