In this podcast I express my concern that we are heading towards a dystopian future due to a survival mode mentality dominating human actions and societal structures. Any person in survival mode can not participate in saving the planet, because survival means always "me first". As long as anyone is just surviving, he cannot take care of the oceans, the air, the rainforest. After transitioning into a "living mode," where human survival is guaranteed and basic needs like food, shelter, and health care are met for everyone, we will be in the position to enable our collective focus on our planet and on more meaningful and sustainable endeavors. Overpopulation - driven only by survival fears - can be changed overnight and humanity can naturally decrease in birth rates to sustainable levels. Let´s collect and spread visionary ideas to shape a desirable, livable future on a healthy planet for all of us!
