Efforts to avoid the pain and uncertainty of this moment sets up the dominant society for more pain and uncertainty in the future. It slows reaction time while the momentum of exponential growth pushes us further beyond ecological limits.

Imagine if you couldn't feel pain of your hand on a hot stove, how much worse your burn would be.

In living systems pain is information that activates a response.

Helping each other take in the evidence and respond to it is adaptive.

Fed raising rates won't do anything to solve this. Gotta switch to renewables, with their predictable, steady costs.
