Brilliant read - even potentially hopeful. Certainly an essential insight - listen first. @rayne_mckechnie @EconologicAnt @shaunpmcinerney @gerrysalole @Routes2R

Yesterday, IPCC lead author @JKSteinberger went to give a #climate talk at her old high school in Geneva—and—in her own words—was given a masterclass in our failings. This is the story of a day that shook her up. → cusp.ac.uk/themes/s1/blog-js… cc @parents_4future #MumWillThePlanetDie

I was once told by a CEO of a major bank in SA that they wish they were subpoenaed to disclose the transactions they see going through many ‘high profile’ accounts. But they wait in vain. It’s not

Replying to @ole_b_peters
Economics and biology were always *meant* to be about complex systems but they fell into the 'valley of reductionism' in seeking the prestige of physics (A 'General Theory' of Economics, anyone?). The 'Teleology Police' were particularly harsh on the biologists.
