To establish local communities is a wonderful way of freeing ourselves from a lot of troubles, but it is hard to achieve. We should perhaps make more concrete proposals to realise this beautiful idea.
Lokal communities, absolutely great. Destroy capitalism, too complicated.
No question, we're running out of time. But I believe that we still can make it all together. That's my goal. I also believe that, if we don't make it, there will be scarcely any place where you just can survive because there will be too many desperate people searching for food and water.
So, let's try to make it - all together!
The suggestion that we need to change the eco-political system first, is in my opinion just as dangerous as the proposal that we have to wait for genius new technologies. Yes, we have to transform almost everything, we know. But we have to use easy to handle things at hand, arrange them intelligently to make them work optimately. That's my opinion.
I agree that an increased focus on establishing local communities is the way to go. Communities that are as self sufficient as practically possible, creating living from sources that to a large extent can be sourced locally - especially when it’s comes to essentials like food and energy. This will create more local opportunities, spur creativity and collaboration, reduce the transport footprint on a lot of goods, and create a larger interest in connecting to and take care of local Ecosystems and Ecosystem services. Create stronger, more cohesive and resilient local communities.
Destroying capitalism - hmmm I do not think that is practically achievable as a concept. I think as alternative ways of organising our economy is emerging and practiced - the more undesirable effects of capitalism will fade. Better to build new ways, practises and solutions, and let the old ways be obsolete in time.
