    Roughly 500,000 gallons of water goes into extracting 1 ton of lithium. To put that into perspective, it takes around 1 tablespoon of lithium to produce 1 cell phone, meaning, 500,000 gallons of water would make 190,000 cell phones. Mining takes up 65% of the province's water in Salar de Atacama, Chile.

    ‘Consequences will be dire’: Chile’s water crisis is reaching breaking point | Chile | The Guardian
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jun/01/chiles-water-crisis-megadrought-reaching-breaking-point

    Water has become a national security issue – it’s that serious,” said Pablo García-Chevesich, a Chilean hydrologist working at the University of Arizona. “It’s the biggest problem facing the country economically, socially and environmentally. If we don’t solve this, then water will be the cause of the next uprising.”

    France’s Nuclear Power Production Crisis Means More Energy Pain for Europe - Bloomberg
    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-05-19/european-electricity-prices-jump-as-france-cuts-nuclear-forecast

    French power contracts for the fourth-quarter jumped as much as 8.6% after EDF lowered its annual target for this year to 280 to 300 terawatt-hours from 295 to 315 terawatt-hours previously. French prices are the most expensive in Europe, with contracts for the period almost double levels in Germany.

    The utility cut its forecast as it realized that “stress corrosion” issues affecting some of its reactors will require more checks and repairs. The outlook for the following year remains unchanged for now, the firm said

    EP.11 Vanessa Andreotti: The World as a Living Metabolism
    https://youtu.be/N7MX1UBUS1M


    Professor Vanessa Andreotti is an Educational studies Professor and researcher on Race, Inequalities and Global Change at the University of British Columbia.Her work focuses on the limits of the modern/colonial story of development and human evolution and the adjacent possibilities of setting our horizons beyond what we can imagine within modern institutions and ways of knowing and being. In this episode we discuss Vanessa’s understanding of the world as a “living metabolism” that is currently sick and requires a hospicing of modernity.

    Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures
    https://decolonialfutures.net/

    Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures (GTDF) is an arts/research collective that uses this website as a workspace for collaborations around different kinds of artistic, pedagogical, cartographic, and relational experiments that aim to identify and de-activate colonial habits of being, and to gesture towards the possibility of decolonial futures.

    GTDF is also a practice that is multi-layered and rather difficult to explain, but we will give it a go.

    It is about hospicing worlds that are dying within and around us with care and integrity, as well as attention to the lessons these deaths offer, while also assisting with the birth of new, potentially wiser possibilities, without suffocating them with projections;
    .
    It is about facing our complicity in violence and unsustainability and its implications with the courage of really seeking to connect with the collective pain, past, present and future;
    .
    It is about composting our individual and collective shit with humility, joy, generosity and compassion, trying to “dig deeper and relate wider”;
    .
    It is about holding space for difficult conversations and silences without relationships falling apart;
    .
    It is about recognizing and taking responsibility for harmful modern-colonial habits of being (in ourselves and around us) that cannot be stopped by the intellect, by good intentions and by spiritual, artistic or embodied practices alone;
    .
    It is about interrupting modern-colonial addictions, in particular addictions to the consumption of knowledge, of self-actualization, of experiences, of critique, of alternatives, of relationships and of communities;
    .
    It is about recognizing that we are an extension of the land-metabolism that is the planet, not the other way around, preparing for the end of the world as we know it, and showing up differently so that “another end of the world” becomes possible;
    .
    It is about dis-investing in desires for unrestricted autonomy, authority, certainty, control, protagonism, purity, popularity, superiority and validation to create space for acccountabilities, for response-abilities, for exiled capacities and for deeper intimacies;
    .
    It involves learning and unlearning, disarming and de-centering, dethroning and de-arrogantizing, detoxifying and decluttering, mourning, grieving and healing, digesting and metabolizing, seeing ourselves as cute and pathetic, so that the wider metabolism can breathe and move more easily within and around us;
    .
    It involves loosening our attachments to our self images and to what we think we want, so that we might instead step up, own up, clean up, grow up, wake up and show up to do what is really needed, whether or not it fits with our personal agendas.

    There is a Forest Called Amazon
    https://decolonialfuturesnet.files.wordpress.com/2021/07/aforestcalledamazonlarge-1.pdf

    Family book
    https://lastwarning.org/family-book

    The book "There is a Forest Called Amazon" tells the story of the Amazon forest from an Indigenous perspective, where humans are a manifestation of the forest itself. The text presents the destruction of the Amazon forest as something that is driven by 4 "attackers": greed, arrogance, vanity and selfishness. It intends to warn us about the dangers of reproducing these patterns and of the importance of our responsibility towards each other, the forest and the planet. As an exercise in global citizenship education, the text invites children to engage in teeny-tiny protests (with a cut out of chief Ninawa), and mini protests (with their families).

    We see this text and the support from children and families as the flagship of this educational campaign. It is everyone's future that is at stake. And that is what we are fighting for.

    the denial of systemic, historical, and ongoing violence and of complicity in harm (the fact that our comforts, securities, and enjoyments are subsidized by expropriation and exploitation here and elsewhere);

    the denial of the limits of the planet and of the unsustainability of modernity-coloniality (the fact that the finite Earth-metabolism cannot sustain exponential growth, consumption, extraction, exploitation, and expropriation indefinitely);

    the denial of entanglement (our insistence in seeing ourselves as separate from each other and the land, rather than “entangled” within a wider living metabolism that is bio-intelligent); and,

    the denial of the magnitude and the complexity of the problems we need to face together (the tendency to look for simplistic solutions that make us feel and look good and that may address symptoms, but not the root causes of our collective complex predicament).

    future is here, now


    More than 6 million Southern Californians will be placed under new drought rules today in an unprecedented effort to conserve water.
    The restrictions are a response to the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California’s urgent call for a 35% reduction in water use following California’s driest-ever start to the year. MWD’s board has never before issued such severe cuts, but said they were left with little recourse after state officials slashed deliveries from the State Water Project to just 5%.

    paliativni proces, nez se bude moct narodit regenerativni kultura

    Hospicing Modernity by Vanessa Machado de Oliveira: 9781623176242 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books
    https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/675703/hospicing-modernity-by-vanessa-machado-de-oliveira/

    Driven by expansion, colonialism, and resource extraction and propelled by neoliberalism and rabid consumption, our world is profoundly out of balance. We take more than we give; we inoculate ourselves in positive self-regard while continuing to make harmful choices; we wreak irreparable havoc on the ecosystems, habitats, and beings with whom we share our planet. But instead of drowning in hopelessness, how can we learn to face our reality with humility and accountability?

    Machado de Oliveira breaks down archetypes of cognitive dissonance–the do-gooder who does “good enough,” then retreats to business as usual; the incognito capitalist who, at first glance, may seem like a radical change-maker–and asks us to dig deeper and exist differently. She explains how our habits, behaviors, and belief systems hold us back…and why it’s time now to gradually disinvest. Including exercises used with teachers, NGO practitioners, and global changemakers, she offers us thought experiments that ask us to:

    • Reimagine how we learn, unlearn, and respond to crisis
    • Better assess our surroundings and interact with difference, uncertainty, complexity, and failure
    • Expand our capacity to hold personal and collective space for difficult and painful things
    • Understand the “5 modern-colonial e’s”: Entitlements, Exceptionalism, Exaltation, Emancipation, and Enmeshment in low-intensity struggle activism
    • Interrupt our satisfaction with modern-colonial desires that cause harm
    • Create space for change driven neither by desperate hope nor a fear of desolate hopelessness
