Jones: All organizations are perfectly designed to get the results they get!
Our establishment like the agents for the absentee landlords and believe in absolute rights of property. Also money creation rights should be private.
Leads to extra money for finite property. Inflation!

Farmers will need iron clad reassurances to even entertain the idea of getting back into trees.

I believe this will require a clean slate in the form of a new agency, with proper resources, ie boots on the ground, in farmyards, listening and giving objective advice

We need a new vocabulary of climate and a new kind of state, rooted in the best, not the worst of human nature. The work begins by abandoning the mainstream imperialistic, corporate and woefully naive existing visions of our 2050 1.5C net zero future.

[Chris Shaw @kalahar1]

What to do? We can’t work with existing liberal capitalist states. We need to build new ‘climate’ states. That requires we work at some distance from the state to build an alternative model. A new language of climate, us and the world is an essential part of that work.

[Chris Shaw @kalahar1]

8/10 I interviewed 14 climate opinion formers. All recognised the urgent need for fundamental changes to our economy, ideology and politics (IPCC 2022). None (myself included) know how to bring that change about or what the destination looks like. No one is in control

In Ancient Greece the Agora was the center of the artistic, social, civic, business, spiritual, and even political life of a city.

Thought-provoking article on 'colonial masculinities' in rewilding.

'... lairds act as masters of nature; changing landscapes according to their vision and making decisions about what life gets to flourish.'

'Men can be real men in the wilderness.'

Earlier this year I visited a neonatal ward.

Tiny premature babies, beeping monitors + medical staff around - yet no parents.

I was in Occupied Palestinian Territories where doctors told me that movement restrictions + a blockade on Gaza separates mothers from babies:

Banning of straight Urea would be a hammer blow for farms transitioning to biological farming,and has been clearly signalled to Dept of Ag by those qualified in the field.

Promoting a synthetic N inhibitor,will have huge consequences for soil biology and natural N fixing systems
