Conditions Quotes

“Our problem is that the climate crisis hatched in our laps at a moment in history when political and social conditions were uniquely hostile to a problem of this nature and magnitude-that moment being the tail end of the go-go '80s, the blastoff point for the crusade to spread deregulated capitalism around the world.

Yet it entered mainstream consciousness in the midst of an ideological war being waged on the very idea of the collective sphere.”

A mythical structure will be built up around him which makes sense and is believable-in, regardless of whether or not it is true.”
