I have been finding myself recording thoughts and ideas on different topics these last few weeks, as an outlet to not get all of them stuck in my head but to "set them free" and get them off my mind to make space for other things.
So here is a first part of sharing impromptu thoughts which in this case centered around our reactions in towns, cities, communities to
government inaction with the world approaching critical tipping points that warrant radical climate action on all levels to ensure long-term security.
Next to protesting, pressuring, petitioning, mobilizing - should we detach from governing bodies as well and see how we can gain independence? At this critical point in time should we go off on our own and just bring about the changes on local and regional levels and look for the visionaries, architects and handymen or farmers who can help us change our communities for the better, instead of hoping governments will do a 180 on the final stretch?
As so often I also could not keep myself from going down the road of: "why do politicians do what they do? why do they often disappoint in office? why are there so many people there who compromise their initial values or make decisions like they don't live on this planet?"
Surely, surely questions with many different answers but one of them, that came to mind is politicians and ministers comfort.
The privileges and comforts the 'higher ups' enjoy may change perspectives and give them such a feeling of security that
they don't really feel as vulnerable as the rest of us.
PS: take all of my future solo Talks with a grain of salt, please :)
these are spur of the moments thoughts and feelings that surely generally apply, but are spontaneous situations as well so not every fact and figure must be 100 % correct, although I do normally check afterwards
I also don't think that all politicians are corrupt unfeeling people with warped world views - just for the record ;)
Thank you for listening to this Talk🌍🌊☀
