The 'isms' relate the philosophical concept to a disseminating
mythology. It's Eris for greeks.
Evolution and nurture are the core processes running your worlds, mind
and cultures.
The money system is designed so that if credits are used for development
then savings can only buy ecology. All economic Nobels go to development
and the synthesis of ecology is not even a topic.

Climate change is just one inevitable consequence of the way our
monetary system works, of the way it requires us and our society and
anti-economy to behave and of the way it shapes our culture and value
system ... it's really, really simple.
Without our monetary system there would be no climate change and we
would enjoy the very same level of technological progress. The delay
of certain technologies specifically pushed for warfare would have
easily been compensated by a very different (cooperative) approach to
worldwide R&D.
A sane society would not ruin their biosphere in the name of an insane
and highly criminal monetary system and the most absurd concepts like
pointless "economic growth" beyond market saturation, #bullshitjobs
,etc. ... regardless of their technological level.

But to biopoliticians, 'the last reset' is actually evolution.

Humanity is not evolving. Humanity is de-evolving as the latest

degeneration of quality of average consciousness. You are mistaking
technological progress with genuine development.
Technology just amplifies your impact. If you are evil/insane
(feature a high-entropy consciousness) you will use technology to
further increase the entropy inherent to your society and
surroundings. If humanity was actually evolving (which can only
happen in an environment of abundance and thus love, empathy,
cooperation) we would still be using the same level of technology
but with a million-fold less negative impact on our society and
biosphere.
4 billion _PURELY_ _SYSTEMIC_ #bullshitjobs for example serve
absolutely nobody and no meaningful purpose (they don't advance
humanity nor technology) and use technology to pollute and destroy
our environment and society.
I don't know why it's so hard to understand? Climate change =
entropyInherentToSociety amplified by technology. A crazy society
(shaped by centuries of artificial scarcity) will use technology to
destroy everything in the name of ego, monetary "profit", cancerous
"growth", etc. ... nothing of this has anything to do with genuine
development. Again: We have been heavily degenerating ever since
market saturation peeked again after the last rest (WW2) and
"growth" could only be maintained by engaging in ever increasing
levels of insanity ... like entertaining billions of #bullshitjobs,
like pushing consumerism to never-seen-before heights, etc. etc., ...

is you want to get an idea about what a similar (non man-made)

If we don't implement a cooperative monetary system climate
change will speed up the radicalization and degeneration a
100-fold and you will experience something much worse than any
Hollywood movie could ever portray. 50 degrees C in summer will
be the last thing you'll worry about once the average quality of
consciousness drops further. (Read the book.)

The worries about climate change come from estimating the impact
greenhouse effects have on the polar caps. Most of today's
islands are at today's sea level.
Maybe moving the population living at sea level to higher
grounds would lessen those worries.

Climate change is a mere symptom ... just like Trump is ...
just like
ever increasing levels of poverty and social stratification
are

like all the insanity you hear about in the news is. What

destroying every aspect of our existence: Our minds, the

"wetiko" and
they understood very well that it will destroy our planet once
technology would amplify the impact of our insanity a
1000-fold.
