Greg Twemlow's article "I Figured Out How to Save the Planet" outlines a straightforward solution to global environmental and societal crises: "Dump Global, Go Local." Twemlow argues that current issues stem from the Industrial Revolution and especially the 1970s' globalisation, which fostered an extractive economic model benefiting "Billionairocracy" at the planet's expense. He proposes that local communities prioritise local production and consumption, thereby building resilience, keeping wealth within neighbourhoods, and reducing reliance on fossil-fuel-intensive global supply chains. The author suggests a "Sticker Revolution" to visually promote local choices, believing that community-led action, not governments or corporations, holds the power to create a sustainable future. This shift, he asserts, is not merely a choice but a "survival imperative" that can collectively dismantle the global extraction machine. Read the article.
