@liiwi @urlyman ah -- already I can try out the new term I learned yesterday!* These people will all be #ecomodernist 's! ... as well as architectural modernists or whatever.

@jimproctor Admittedly it's been a while since this was posted, but I've only just discovered the #ecomodernist Manifesto. I'll take a look at it and am curious about the potential reference to #Latour.

Great article from @GMWatch shining a light into the murky world of #biotech boosters and misinformation mongers pushing the case for deregulation of #GMO crops and food in #EU.

“Laureates’ letter” misled signatories about GMO regulation in Europe, has industry’s fingerprints all over it

In 》this《 context, I'm more appreciative of degrowth than what they say is decoupling.

"In this context, #degrowth is the proposal to intentionally shrink the physical size of wealthy economies, whereas #decoupling is the hope that growing economies will at last break free from growing #resource use and #environmental damage. The former renews #environmentalism as a #subversive political movement. The latter is firmly post-#environmentalist, often associated with support for #nuclear #energy, #industrial #agriculture, and artificial technologies. With my mentor #GiorgosKallis, we’ve spent three years working together on a critical analysis of this post-environmentalism that emanates from the Breakthrough Institute and their self-styled #ecomodernist friends."

Defending degrowth at ecomodernism’s home

by Sam Bliss In June, I was invited to speak at the eight annual Breakthrough Dialogue, an annual invite-only conference where accomplished thinkers debate how to achieve prosperity for humans and nature. The Breakthrough Institute, an ecomodernist think-tank, welcomed my presence as a provocateur. I was to participate in a panel called “Decoupling vs. Degrowth”. My role was the token “degrowther” making my case to a majority “decoupler” crowd. In this context, degrowth is the proposal to intentionally shrink the physical size of wealthy economies, whereas […]

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Nuclear Waste

YouTube
#US #nuclear lobby #ecomodernist #Breakthrough Institute opens attack on nuclear safety regulations by spreading complete b*****t. Be warned. Nuclear safety needs nuclear regulators that can work 100% independently - especially of lobby disinformation. https://www.nationalreview.com/2023/01/new-red-tape-makes-new-nuclear-reactors-impossible/
New Red Tape Makes New Nuclear Reactors ‘Impossible’

Getting a new nuclear reactor approved is about to go from hard to hopeless.

National Review
We argue that the #ecomodernist approaches, rather than transformative, are reactionary appropriations and co-optations of critical elements and desire for #radical change. They do not challenge the hegemony—they are the hegemony (hence, hegemony reinforcing) (4/9).

Somehow some of the responses to the #EcoModernist manifesto are worse than the manifesto itself.

The response to "Let's sacrifice the global south so we can do capitalism and colonialism ad infinitum while irradiating the planet, it will solve poverty somehow, just trust us" should not be "You forgot to talk about population growth."

 Hi, as #introduction update, I'm an ecological engineer with a focus on data science and agriculture. I study wild bees, plant nutrition, geotechnics and human biomarkers. I know, I can't focus on a single thing.

As #scicomm, #vegan and #ecomodernist, I support public initiatives in food systems to lower human footprints through technologies.

I'm a queerish dad living in 🇨🇦 (fr, en) with a kid and a cockatiel bird, I compose music, draw, write poems, jog, and drink matcha tea.
