New Maroon Getaway Vlog "Remix" Ep 2 Part 1 - Heinberg's "Human Predators, Human Prey"
In this episode, we continue to read through and discuss Richard Heinberg's long essay "Human Predators, Human Prey: Society as Ecosystem in a Time of Collapse". The ecological theme of predation is used as a metaphor to unpack power relations in human societies and the unfolding of human history. http://richardheinberg.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/museletter-315.pdf "To the extent that we are today eroding the carrying capacity on which future generations would otherwise depend, our way of life could be characterized as intergenerational “predation”; to put it crudely, the old are “eating” the young." #newmaroongetaway #terminaldrapetomania
