RE: United We Stand, Divided We Fall...10/10/2020: Climate's Day of Destiny
This sounds like a positive initiative. It seems apparent that the present political systems in most capitalist countries work to push back such efforts with things like corporate welfare for oil companies while not as much support for clean and green solutions. It seems even more obvious when the fracking of oil and gas in the US is actually loosing money, yet folks like the Kosh Brother(s) keep doubling down in the hopes that creating chaos in the middle east will bring the price up to make production profitable.
One person who is definitely thinking outside of the box, politically ,is Yanis Varoufakis and his new borderless political party DiEM25. As a retired homeschooler, myself, my thought was you may be interested in using a talk of his as homeschooling content. It would be interesting to hear what young people think about how to get to post-capitalism. 🖖
Thanks for the information and link @novacadian! I will definitely check it out. I am always looking for ways to educate my @steemagers on the reality of what's going on in the world and realistic solutions to current issues. With so much deceit and propaganda in the mainstream media, and with the shitshow of politics (especially here in the United States), it takes a lot of effort and conscious conversation to keep informed and be able to participate in ventures that are helping bring humans out of this muck we've created. <3
You may want to check out his political party's DiEM25.org website. They are attempting to be member driven instead of country centric. For example when Greece has its party convention any member in any country can vote on the platform being put forward. An idea like that could be profound in breaking up central authority's corrupt hold in most sovereign nations.
Anywho... sent a small delegation to bump you up to minnow in case you don't have access to a voting sliding bar yet. The best minnow perk in my estimation. ✌️😎
