This was an inspiring read. Thank you for reminding us that true change begins with how we imagine and talk about the future.

I have posted a cli-fi story whose link I have sent in your inbox. I would really appreciate if you could check it out.

Thank you for checking this post out. Unfortunately, I'm working on finishing my first book while doing a full-time job at a start-up and I'm really strapped for time. Thanks for your trust, but I don't have the bandwidth to take on any extras.

Many of us don’t realise how lucky we are.

Hello, Claudia.

Upon reading your words, "The biggest problem we face today is not climate change. Not capitalism. Not technocracy. It’s our belief that the human species is better than any other living being on this planet.", I want to share an additional perspective.

Our biggest problem, is not that we see the human species as being better, but that we see ourselves as merely human. The root cause to all our woes, and the woes of the world, is that we keep reiterating a lie. Until we change our dialogue, it is difficult, if not near impossible to change our mindset, our Beingness. When our beingness is based on the tethers of this dimension, this plane of existence, so too will be our livingness. Here, in this dualistic perspective, of right and wrong, up and down, and light and dark, we live too within fear and courage. In this realm, we must be the creators of a higher state of livingness. We do that by being more than labels, titles, and all the lies we've been subjected to, and not tout as truths. Everything we do here within the confines of flesh, bones and blood, will end with flesh, bones and blood. Conversely, when we exist from a state of oneness, as energy interwoven with all else, everything else, then the respect, mercy, and kindness will be the wake given off from our returning to our essence.

Thank you for working to be an answer and for inviting others to contribute. Know this, we cannot change any other, nor the world, nor evil, unless we change for ourselves and our evil. As we live more in-tune with our highest frequency, we elevate all else from our heightened beingness.

Last, there is more happening than we can see here with eyes, hear with ears, touch with fingers, or say with mouths. It will take each of us living higher to return to, and live in our natural state. Here, we live higher, we show mercy, we grace and we forgive, which is the wake of our beingness.

Horrendously late, sorry, but great to see this list. I'd only explored a few of these previously.
