Current Economy and Sustainable Development-compatible? GDP growth (at all costs), economic development, inflation ... How concillier the current economy with the environment and sustainable development.

Yes that's it...
Well I had announced it on the forums... you were probably absent ...

But where are we going?


It is necessary to distinguish AGRO and BIOfuels and not to put everything in the same bag.

In this regard, I proposed to the nicolas hulot list to broadcast my news on the subject ( https://www.econologie.com/agrocarburant ... -3575.html ) and once again only reaction on their part: contempt for ignorance... To believe that good ideas do not interest them ... : Evil: : Evil:

Talk to Jancovici; maybe he will answer you (and as he rubs shoulders with Hulot ... will this happen to Boorlo?). : Lol:

Only when he has brought down the last tree, the last river contaminated, the last fish caught that man will realize that money is not edible (Indian MOHAWK).

Jean Ziegler does it again...but Zelguer has more visibility than Zielgler in the media...

Inside the Monster's Brain



After the television program "REGARDS" broadcast on the RTBF in two parts, here is our full interview with Jean ZIEGLER, Swiss writer and former United Nations Special Rapporteur for the right to food.

Jean ZIEGLER is a great witness of our time. We found him at his home, in Geneva, to discuss his commitment, his extraordinary career (listen to him recount his decisive meeting with Che Guevara...) and the juxtaposition of crises that we are experiencing: social, economic, environmental, geopolitical, democratic… without forgetting the world food crisis, this “daily massacre made by the hand of man” that he never ceases to denounce.

In this interview, while quoting Jaurès, Boukharin or Pablo Neruda, he analyzes predatory capitalism, the rise of the extreme right, criminal migration policies ("the shame of Europe"), the role of intellectuals, of the left, social movements, and our responsibility in the face of the "cannibal world order".

At 88, this indomitable optimist appeals with radicalism, lucidity and poetry to "the insurrection of consciences".

Director: Yannick Bovy // Interview: Yannick Bovy and Julien Truddaïu // January 2023 // 1h15

REGARDS // An opinion program produced by CEPAG and proposed by the Walloon FGTB // In collaboration with GSARA

what a shame and worse! : roll:
that said, he's a fine idealist, too, who says something that anyone can see, it stirs people's consciences... except the funny ones of course! : Cheesy:

He is a 'giant' of our time, a "embarrassedngenuine ant"(he is not in Geneva but in Russin) I modestly had the chance to meet him... thanks to mutual friends. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of society, but is very simple. ..

Here, he reminds me of Ahmed by the depth of the analyzes.
