(14 January 2020) In a harsh and puzzling world, with the weather becoming more extreme, inequality and the oceans rising and foodbanks in one of the richer countries in the world I think we are at the edge of a new paradigm.
We, since roughly the mid 1660s, have been in the Age of Expansion. This was characterised by new resources becoming available as the planet was explored and exploited . However we are reaching natural limits and cannot continue as we were. To survive as a species we need to enter what I, provisionally, call The Age of Sustainability . Over the coming months I intend to explore this.
I have also never built a website so it will take some time to work it out and to avoid being too grim I will put on some pictures of kittens.
