Coyote Vision

This post follows the theme of my posting last month, titled “The Persistent Impulse of Western Civilization.”

The following quote is from “A Compass For Survival”, by Matt Osmond, Dark Mountain Project (dark-mountain.net), June 28, 2023.

“As Durham University’s Professor Carmody Grey puts it, the more troubling dilemma confronting us in 2023 is why, ever since the cliff-edge before them became clearly visible around 50 years ago, industrial consumer societies everywhere have broken into a sprint directly towards it? This isn’t a question much helped by a more nuanced understanding of the IPCC’s politically diluted summary reports. What it does require is a better grasp of how our highly pliable ‘human nature’ has become so lethally maddened by the forces at play within industrialised modernity.”
