We are burning through our natural resource and energy inheritance ten million times faster than it was sequestered. We need a smoking gun, but really, when enough people to change the voting on what we're willing to sacrifice - that's going to be too late for us. People have to be as capable as possible of generating their own energy locally. The food sources has to be as close as you can to food sources. But mentally, its be able to produce some of the energy you need in your own environment. That's e soul is not going to solve our problems, but having some soul, that's goingto be necessary.
On this episode, we meet with Economist, Author, and Research Fellow at the Institute for Strategy, Resilience, and Security at University College in London, Steve Keen.
Keen discusses how mainstream economics misses the centrality of energy to our economy and to our futures, the naive treatment to the risks of money and debt creation, and the disconnect economic theory has to climate change risks.
