Thriving

In a world where human society is faced with multiple crises, we often look outward, for new technologies, entertainment, influence. But the profound issue lies within ourselves, in our relationship with energy, nature, with each other.

As a scientist and environmental activist, I have enjoyed and felt inspired by how Nate Hagens, Director of The Institute for the Study of Energy & Our Future (ISEOF) - an organization focused on educating and preparing society for the coming cultural transition - describes our current opportunities in his podcast, Frankly, and in his The Great Simplification platform.

In one of Nate’s latest videos, The Seeds of New Cultural Mitochondria, he explores 10 traits that will help us to adapt and shape the way we move through and address the human dilemma we face. Could we metabolize our anxiety into something useful for cultural change to occur? “The behaviors that the current economic superstructure rewards cannot form the basis of what emerges from its ashes...we require new ways of thinking and living that put us in closer relationship to one another and the planet around us. In a system structured to serve as a dissipative structure, how do we plant the seeds of something that is more resilient and cooperative?” I invite you to listen to him here.
