How have we reached this point of an environmental crisis with so little change? What is it going to take for society to step up, take action and drive an ecological revolution?
We often hear about the polarisation of modern societies, but when it comes to climate change and vanishing landscapes, shouldn't those who want to protect the ecosystem and share liveable land unite against those who don't?
Before revolutions can take place, a cultural shift needs to happen. As societal values and class aesthetics evolve, a new social organisation can emerge which is aware of its own interests and ready to take power from those who resist.
'Nature doesn't unify — it divides'.*
Join us as we take a provocative dive into the sociology of the ecological transition in the first keynote address of the IETM Aarhus Plenary Meeting.
