This essay originally proposed that we should build a new civilisation. After some excellent feedback from Bill Baue, I now think ‘a planetary pluriverse’ describes the goal more clearly, so I have updated the essay accordingly. It is far from controversial to suggest that we need to transform society. In fact, the world’s governments officially agree, having approved an IPCC report in 2018
Yes! We are on the same page, my friend. Building towards BioRegional circular economies is such a big part of how we move towards a healthier planet. Thanks for introducing me to Cosmolocalism!
Thanks, Paddy. I love the vision, and would welcome networking with like-minded others in the Cascadia Bioregion; more specifically the Rogue River Valley of southern Oregon, U.S.A. The biggest challenge, I suspect, is for each one of us consciously to shift away from the deeply conditioned fear/defense (and thus consumerist/combative) habit, evolving to the attitude of gratitude, respect and generosity, deep listening and creativity, trust and compassion and willingness. jim97520 at gmail dot com
