This chapter explores the superficiality of individual efforts to support environmental causes and argues that these efforts fail to address the root causes of ecological problems, which stem from toxic social and economic institutions.
Today we talk about some of the work of Murray Bookchin. We talk about anarchism as a historical trend in human thought that keeps recurring. Then we talk about the superficiality of typical approaches to being environmentally conscious. We talk about Futurism and the hope of colonizing other planets. We talk about Artificial Intelligence and why people sometimes don't feel like celebrating its arrival.
