    The same systems that wreck the climate are bad for the water, the air, our bodies, our economies, and our communities. What if we remade them to address all of those dangers at once?

    Imagine if there was a state of the Earth address, and the powerful dressed up to attend it, and the networks broadcast it, and the witty writers broke it down for everyone, and the economy got worried when the signs were worrying.

    I did a lot of work today and ignored twitter and the outside world for the most part. Scanning for updates feels... Overwhelming... And scary. We live amidst a shitshow. What to do? As my mentor told me years ago: show up, and do it in a good way. That's all I've got.

    Can officially confirm that 5 conference calls between 1PM and 5:33pm is not a good idea.

    Diagram from ’s insta. One of these systems is causing the destruction of our planet & climate. The other system supports the healing & protection of people & planet. Imagine if white evangelical, Trump-supporting Christians shifted to the partnership system. Imagine.

  8. While capitalism tries to profit off your stress, when seek opportunities for collective care you get the added satisfaction of being quietly but pointedly subversive, right there watering the flower pots at the town hall or shelving books in the library.

  9. I've been playing with this idea lately, and find that collective care lifts my individual spirits, when it is freely and generously given (not so much when it is assigned or obligated).

  11. Examples of collective care: organize a tea hour (or a beer hour) for your department or organization; work outside on a project that restores or protects land/water/ecosystem; write someone a note or walk around giving compliments for fifteen minutes.

  12. Experiment: the next time you feel tired, worn down, discouraged, afraid, stressed, instead of 'self-care' try out some 'collective care' and see if that changes how you feel.

    How many of our healthy impulses, like being connected to the living world, get channeled by the current economic system into something opposite?

    A 2nd one: Too often we respond to climate change with the opposite of the teaching it seems to be offering. Hardening instead of softening, accumulating instead of sharing, protecting our in-group instead of recognizing our wholeness as a planet.

    What do you think are the biggest/saddest/most poignant ironies of the era of climate change? I'll start: Because we collectively refuse to change little things we could control, huge things we can't control will change instead.

    Wealth is a buffer to shocks. Mutual aid, reparations, and solidarity could be too, if we were to re-make the world according to principles of justice reflecting the interconnected nature of our existence.
