moon_appsome of these commodities are designed specifically to kill people, destroy habitat and needful human and natural systems. that is direct harm and abuse! production, consumption and waste cycles of other commodities cause similar harm indirectly. As the dominant species on the planet, we must say no. that is within #NaturalContract acquisition, production and consumption of energies are our responsibility
moon_app@christopher @sz_duras the #NaturalContract is an imperative in the same sense that fascism and/or extinction must be refused. tho the biospheric state of affairs is concrete, once accepted the work of the Contract requires dialectic
to sign the #NaturalContract is a commitment to the #Biosphere. this includes human life. to sign the #NaturalContract is to recognise the energies and capacities of human systems and to take responsibility not only as Human but for Human. it should be the will of the masses to demand #Biogean governance. on the personal level, it is to be unto life, bios
@tofol the #NaturalContract is not merely a list of demands made upon the species, it is a guide to recognising the connectitude of natural systems within nature & the connectitude of human systems as they are and can be practiced within the human sphere. it demonstrates various ways to address any number of choices to various degrees of satisfaction or sufficiency. in so doing it is a guide to various policy platforms & government. to sign the #NaturalContract is a commitment to the #Biosphere
@tofol once the work is done a record of the decision event remains. if the project fails we may discover how & why. if project is a great success, beyond reasonable expectations specific decision events may be useful.
no one is forced to accept the invitation.
principally, forced choices result from the demands of the #Biogea made upon the species. these are recorded in the #NaturalContract
our recreation, reproduction and share is not dependent upon producing or reproducing the #Biogea
@james love is not specific. the things you cal externalities, our productive and consumptive activities are specific. what is specific is war, this war upon the planet. what would be specific and need be performed is a declaration of peace. a binding contract between the very near creatures and things and the very near human activities. none of this is "faraway". obedience to nature and the #NaturalContract is not costly at all
@ebrandom @impermanen_
be careful with "#authentic." as for freedom, recognising that we are not free, that we are tethered to #Biosphere, thermodynamics, gravity, etc. that the current Master/Slave relationship with #Biosphere is a death pact. that the new relations and determinisms will be more #Humane and #Biogean. the latter meaning our relationships as expressed in the #NaturalContract. this results in a double #Humanism. one subject to two (and maybe three) others
