To face #ClimateChange we need #SystemChange

More like a change of mindset.
You can tell it's hard by the way these two fire experts are ignored all over the nation.

“We don’t necessarily need a trillion-dollar program and a fire czar to get control of the fire problem,” Pyne said. “What we need are a thousand things that tweak the environment in favorable ways such that we can prevent these eruptions.”

Los Angeles Times · Two fire experts describe inconvenient truths about L.A. wildfiresBy Thomas Curwen

#introduction: I've been tooting as @NeuKelte@todon.eu since #Imbolc 2022 before I moved here.
I'm interested in all things #Celtic, but particularly the #IronAge and the myths of the Gaels and the Welsh.
I regularly post about my Nua-#CelticSoulJourneys to Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Brittany and the Isle of Man.

We need #degrowth, a #DonutEconomy & #SystemChange to #Conviviality in a #CaringEconomy of #Partnerism within #planetboundaries 🙏

Below is a statement I prepared and read at the December 19, 2024, Board of Selectmen meeting in the Town of Easton, Connecticut. A video of the statement, and the entire meeting, will be available shortly.

“Deny Defend Depose”

I am here for all of us, even though I only have my own story.

For 22 years, I’ve been a Type One diabetic. For 22 years I’ve fought insurance companies to get the medication that I need to be here tonight alive. I am one of the lucky ones living here in EASTON with neighbors like you. But recently, I spent time in front of the pharmacy counter, explaining that if I didn’t take home insulin, I would die. Corporate interests prioritized their rebate scheme over my life

This statement was conceived on my way home today in a rush to get to insulin that would not clog my insulin pump. A new flank in a 22-year battle against for-profit healthcare.

I didn’t quite make it to Manor Lane before I had to pull over on Sport Hill Parkway to vomit from high blood sugar. Sorry to disturb you, neighbors, but the privilege of living in towns like Easton also comes with responsibilities to those that, frankly, never stood a chance of making it here.

Deny defend depose.

When marketing and advertising firms make up terms like “natural gas“ to mask the scary reality of methane so big oil can put in pipelines by our beloved Mill River and schools.

Deny defend depose.

When Donald Trump makes up lies about immigrants....
