Surviving Oligarchy - Creating a Caring Economy @FacingFuture

Uploaded May 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

What is the path beyond the oligarchies that dominate the United States and other
political systems in the world today? How will we recover environmental protections and partnerships with other countries, and restore essential safety nets for those who need them?

We must plan now to create a more equitable economy, based on partnerships, rather than domination. This is the wisdom of Dr. Riane Eisler, systems scientist, historian, and author of The Chalice and the Blade: Our History, Our Future and The Real Wealth of Nations: Creating a Caring Economics, as well as many other books and articles.

She guides us to recognize that we are all actors in the evolution of society, and in the preservation of life on Earth.

FacingFuture is looking for volunteers to help us spread the word about the ongoing climate crisis. In particular we need people with expertise in social media promotion, and video editing/production. Facing Future is a small non-profit organisation and the work is entirely voluntary, but brings its own rewards. We communicate by Email and hold meetings on Zoom, so you can help us out no matter where in the world you are.

Surviving Oligarchy - Creating a Caring Economy

$The Best Climate Science You Haven’t Heard Most of us have understood the scientific consensus to be that no matter what we do, the damage we have caused the planet is baked in, and that even if we stopped all emissions now, the Earths temperature would continue to rise for 30-40 years. But does climate science actually say this? It turns out that new climate models have led scientist Michael Mann to dramatically revise that lag time estimate down to as little as 3 to 5 years. This means that the best #ClimateScience you’ve probably never heard of suggests that the temperature will stop rising, although it will take more time to go down to safe levels. Humanity might still be able to limit the damage to a fraction of the worst projections, if we take strong action starting now. This action must include recovering, preserving and protecting carbon sinks. And we need radical transformative change in government policy, redirecting subsidies away from fossil fuels. Host Raya Salter speaks to #MarkHertsgaard, veteran climate reporter, author and Executive Director of #CoveringClimateNow, about this “hidden science” and what it means for the climate movement.
