The disruption to the global system caused by a six-day blockage of the Suez is only a taste of what is to come.

Origin stories are there for when we wonder why.

Why do so many people not have enough food to eat? Why can’t we afford a simple house? Why is your sex life unsatisfying? Why do I have a chronic health condition?

‘Still we are severing peatlands, woodlands, for engines that claim to be so light, so fast’

To call the employment of street sweepers very civilized is something of an exaggeration. It would be truly civilized if everyone stopped throwing trash in the streets.
