"All environmentalists in the global North have operated from the same assumption: the more the climate crisis hits us, the more climate rational we’ll become. But the last few years have falsified that hypothesis. In fact, the more the climate catastrophe escalates, the less we want to look at it. Shit has gotten worse. But shit getting worse in a way that reminds us of all the changes we should have made over the last 30 years doesn’t make us more rational."

@gerrymcgovern great post, Gerry. This guy absolutely rocks, in a German angsty sort of way. I am going to check his book out.
