  Being informed is the first step to combatting the ongoing destruction of our ecosphere. The capitalists who own and operate traditional media no longer want an informed public, because a society that is knowledgeable is harder to manipulate. Don't make it easy for them.

  The recently published Global Justice Platform is a moderate attempt to decarbonize, tax wealth, and sustain planetary habitability. It's also probably the best deal capitalism will get in the long term. 🌎 @benlockwood@ecoevo.social writes for Brief Ecology about the platform's strengths and weaknesses https://www.briefecology.com/the-eco-update-29/the-global-justice-platform-a-deal-capitalism-should-take

  Capitalism is a dictatorship of profit. The subservience of all else to growth is antithetical to democracy. An ecological society should reflect the diversity and complexity that ecosystems naturally produce, and true democracy is what allows that diversity to flourish. https://www.briefecology.com/

  The same system that exploits the working class also exploits our ecosphere. Profit-seeking extracts maximum value from labor while giving as little back to the workers as possible. At the same time, profit-seeking extracts maximum energy and biomass from ecosystems while giving as little back to the environment as possible. Capitalism is unsustainable for both society and the planet. https://www.briefecology.com/
