Redirecting...

We all know life on our planet is in trouble. But most of us don’t know what to do about it.

We need hope. We need something to look forward to. We need empowerment.

This session offers a first step in a new direction.

@adobe.com why on earth does Acrobat Reader require sign in every time I open the app? There’s no option to remember the sign in.

Aren't we tired of survival of the fittest, dog eat dog, eye for an eye, alpha-beta, winner-loser power games yet?

What kind of world do we really want to live in?

What if the climate crisis is just the catalyst humanity needs to finally realise that we really are all in this together? And choose to cooperate to create a sustainable future in which everyone thrives?

species, and there's a whole lot of suffering along the way, wouldn't that be a much greater cost?

Which would you rather be wrong about?

it costs us some time, energy, resources and luxuries. OK, so we waste some of those on a hoax. Big deal.

But if they're wrong, and we do nothing, and societies collapse, and 7/8ths of the world's population is wiped out, along with most other species...

Someone said "climate change is a fear campaign to trick emotional people into giving up their power".

I want to share this thought experiment for your consideration:

If they're right, and humanity invests in mitigating the worst effects of climate change, it costs us...

Trump doubts Putin’s sincerity after Vatican meeting with Zelenskyy | ABC NEWS
YouTube video by ABC News (Australia) Trump doubts Putin’s sincerity after Vatican meeting with Zelenskyy | ABC NEWS

When Trump says β€œhe thinks Zelensky is ready to give up Crimea”, is that the truth or spin? He seems to see himself as a master negotiator, but is he just a manipulative propagandist?

In a cost of living crisis, it appears around 95% of Americans may well have voted against their own interests in electing Trump for a second term. What will Australians do when we go to vote in a few months time? #australian #federal #election #2025

While steering clear of alarmism, I think it’s worth being aware that Musk’s gestures may have been a signal or a nod.

β€œAt the time of writing” (/broadcast) is a phrase often used for this purpose. I get that it doesn’t flow so well, but facts matter, especially with climate related content.

Fact check though - it hasn’t killed dozens (yet, hopefully it doesn’t)

What justice system? SCOTUS and others are politically tainted and corrupted by self interest. They have failed to apply justice.
