00:00Often look at the climate crisis in isolation, we act as if we are otherwise alright, generally
00:08okay and somehow, incidentally, an alien crisis has hit us for no strong reason whatsoever.
00:19So we want to treat it in a very peripheral way, as if it is a skin infection or something
00:25caused by a bacteria that has settled on the surface of the body and the effect of that
00:32alien bacteria is only skin deep.
00:34That's the mental model we hold with respect to the climate crisis.
00:39What I am proposing is that climate crisis, culture and consumer capitalism are one and
00:47the same thing and unless all of them are treated together, the climate part just cannot
00:55be taken care of.
