Australian woman, lived just down the road from where we used to live until we had massive bushfires and we decamped to Tasmania

Lismore has serious flooding issues, so I presume the house she lives on is up on the hill near the hospital ?

Collapse ? She talks of her climate grief and her understanding of “we’re collapsing”, (at about 11:40 and again at 14:00) not sure she’s at Tom Murphies level but none the less I find her inspirational and thought others might be interested.

Yes yes we’re well aware underpinning it all is someone else paying the bills in exchange for her labour, but I still find her inspirational for lowering her impact significantly and thoughfully.

If mods think its not for here, they can delete it …

    Sustainability. Climate adaptation and resilience. Detachment from capitalism and harmful industries. A good story.

    The real question is what were you hoping to take away that isn’t here?

      how any of that is really present in this example when she’s benefiting from society that relies on said things

        No one said she had left society. I guess this just isn’t what you were expecting because it’s kinda obvious how those things are present.
