While we're all distracted with covid19 and the (long overdue) social justice revolution underway, let's not forget there's something far more intense looming on the horizon... total civilization collapse due to the climate crisis. Governments are doing fuck all. They're in bed with the world's biggest corporations, which are causing this crisis in the first place. Therefore, the social justice movement must expand to include a profound task -- ending these legal fictions that are enabling the destruction of the biosphere on which we depend. We must face facts. No one is coming to save us. We provocatively suggest: the optimum approach to end the corps as well as dramatically reduce one's carbon footprint is to simply exit from modern "civilization". What does that look like to you personally? Start designing!
