BESSERE ANTWORTEN

A reflection on how humanity could move from fear, scarcity and againstness toward freedom, togetherness, guaranteed basic survival and a new way of living on this planet. What happens when humanity continues to organize itself around fear, scarcity, competition and “survival of the fittest”? And what could become possible if basic survival were guaranteed for everyone? This is an invitation to imagine a world based not on againstness, but on togetherness, freedom, meaning and shared responsibility for the planet.

In this podcast I express my concern that we are heading towards a dystopian future due to a survival mode mentality dominating human actions and societal structures. Any person in survival mode can not participate in saving the planet, because survival means always "me first". As long as anyone is just surviving, he cannot take care of the oceans, the air, the rainforest. After transitioning into a "living mode," where human survival is guaranteed and basic needs like food, shelter, and health care are met for everyone, we will be in the position to enable our collective focus on our planet and on more meaningful and sustainable endeavors. Overpopulation -  driven only by survival fears - can be changed overnight and humanity can naturally decrease in birth rates to sustainable levels. Let´s collect and spread visionary ideas to shape a desirable, livable future on a healthy planet for all of us!
