Humanity is moving through a narrow and dangerous passage. Environmental damage, political instability, rapid technological change, and economic pressure are all rising at once. Energy use is climbing, ecosystems are under strain, information systems are flooded with polarising noise, and institutions are struggling to keep pace. A major driver of this acceleration is corporate greed […]
We are now in genuine crunch time—globally, systemically, and environmentally. The convergence of political instability, ecological degradation, technological acceleration, and institutional fragility has pushed human civilisation into a narrow and dangerous corridor. This is not rhetorical escalation. It is structural reality. I have spent decades developing a rigorous systems model for sustainable global engagement, grounded […]
Meaning does not exist in words, ideas, or intentions taken in isolation. It arises from a relational system in which elements acquire significance only through their differences from one another over time. Words are defined by other words; references defer to further references; interpretation always lags expression. That lag is not an accident or a […]
In a globally integrated system there is nowhere for costs to go. Automation and scale do not eliminate thermodynamic, material, or social costs; they only displace them within the same closed system. This is critically unsustainable because continued growth depends on offloading costs that can no longer be externalised, forcing the system to consume its […]
