Very current climate philosophy and policy. This is a superb, important video. Spend the time to watch it... or open the transcript.

"punching below our weight" is an understatement. Most Humans dont know how to punch or even grow food. Just experts on the playstation.

I love Latour even more after this.

57+ "When you are 18 or 21 you are willing to sacrifice everything for what you think is right. " Is that so? Is it so if it means that you treat other young people around the world as equals in a more substantial manner than just "caring for justice" (assuming that in every future world you will continue to be among the top 5%)? It is one thing to be in your 70s with a life of achievements behind making wise (no irony) comments and it is another thing being 20 and wanting to live (even if you express it as a justice epic).In our world how many educated young people are willing to sacrifice something substantial when they have no compensation? Who can connect in our times life with sacrifice? (Once uppon a time there was the Christian Europe and in that land that might have a broader meaning, but now is this not an achievement of very few? Can Gaia, or Gaian "prophets" speak [REL]igiously? Disconnected from history? Only throught the creativity of arts?) In my opinion, it will be migration, tension, conflicts, wars, moral fog. We get the result of the choices of an older generation, now cloacked in "wisdom", urging young people to show a level of character they themselves failed to show (as a generation) when they were the same age .
