From MR Online: "Socialist Feminism and the Communal State" Originally published: Translated by Internationalist 360 by Blanca Eekhout and María Fernanda Barreto (October 16, 2019). Read this, please. This lady is speaking truth to the propagandists within the US.

Your post is greatly appreciated. These links will help me to further understand the work you pursue.

Have not been regularly checking on the forum, and didn't see your post until today. Let me know if you travel through Macon County and we can have a cup of coffee (or tea) together.

I am glad to see you publishing and adding your voice to all of us who are trying to understand what is unfolding in the world. I still do not agree with your characterizations of much surrounding this issue, but your article was interesting to read. Glad you've provided a link here.

This article explains how industrial ag actually is responsible for 40-47% of US carbon emissions. Please give this a read: "The 9% Lie: Industrial Food and Climate Change" by Ronnie Cummins, who is the International Director of the Organic Consumers Association and its Mexico affiliate, Via...

How strange and rude that they would get the author's name wrong! Wow. Glad you pointed that out.

I forgot to include a link to a second article that Dr. Mediavilla would like us to know about: "Economists, please, invent something!" I am very glad to have learned about this scholar on Resilience.org, where I first read "Ecofeminism to Escape Collapse."

Dr. Mediavilla has given me permission to post her excellent article on this forum. Here is an excerpt and a link to the full article. And: Her article explores feminism economics, systems theory, reproductive theory, and feedback loops. Hope you check it out: "Ecofeminism to Escape Collapse"

You are fortunate to live on the west coast where both Extinction Rebellion and the Sunrise Movement are active. Nothing like that in central Illinois. Coalitions are hugely important, I agree. How about this for a coalition: the Greater Decatur Black Chamber of Commerce receiving a pretty good...

I've spent the afternoon reading Bendell's 2018 Deep Adaptation paper and his article on Resilience.org responding to criticisms of his ideas. I like this from the Resilience.org article very much: The above is an excellent resolution. I remain concerned by Bendell's seeming unwillingness to...

So, egalitarian, I've joined the Deep Adaptation forum in an attempt to increase my understanding of the work you and others are doing. As someone who does believe the difficult or dire effects of climate change are already hitting hard many populations in the US, I want to improve my awareness...

My friend Howard shared with me another wonderful article about Marta's work and her passing. You can read it here:

Marta Harnecker died today. Telesur has this obituary for her: Marta Harnecker: The Fighter YouTube has several recordings of Marta Harnecker speaking at conferences about her work and her theories. She authored more than 60 books. She participated in revolutions in Bolivia and Venezuela. She...

"As a member of System Change Not Climate Change, this morning I received links to a couple of YouTube videos about stresses on 2019 crop production. Produced by climate scientist Paul Beckwith, the videos portray the world as teetering on the brink of a profound food shortage. Like so many...

That's high praise coming from you. I checked out a description of the book, but hadn't heard from anybody I know about its value. Glad you read your post.

Here's the second article in this series on metabolic rift and the nitrogen cycle. There will be a part three that analyzes how this problem has been unfolding since the 19th century. Nitrogen glut: Too much of a good thing is deadly for the biosphere | Climate & Capitalism

I know you're going to get much better replies than this one, but I'm wondering if you've seen this video produced by Nate Hagens. It's 1.5 hrs., but moves very quickly and it's pretty engaging. He provides no political frame for his opinions at all, but he goes straight at our current...

Hopefully, at least some of you who read these posts are from the Midwest. Farm country. In addition to being excited at finding this article by Ian Angus, I'm very interested in its topic: the nitrogen cycle's disruption of the Anthropocene. Whahh... ? I fear some of you may say. Bear with me...

Dianne Feeley provides an overview of six organizations' approaches to the GND or what is needed to address climate change. I find it very helpful to see these statements compared side-by-side. "Making the Green New Deal Real" by Dianne Feeley for Solidarity.org.

One way to rein in human narcissism is to collectively agree, as a growing number of communities and countries do, that ecosystems should be recognized as "persons" If such a concept can be applied to an artificially constructed legal entity, the corporation, all the more reason for an 'entity'...
