EPISODE 129 | The Fermi Paradox: Here Comes Nobody If we are not unique as a species, an intelligent one that builds civilizations, then there must be lots and lots of other civilizations out there in the galaxy and the rest of the universe beyond. But if so, where the hell is everybody? That's the question at the heart of the Fermi Paradox. And this has kicked off a chain of reasoning and speculation that crosses disciplinary boundaries, and lets us start to envision, not just what might be out there, but where we ourselves want to go as a global civilization.

Today, ecologist, political scientist, and author Patrick Ophuls joins Nate to discuss his new book, The Tragedy of Industrial Civilization and The Future of Politics. As he's been doing for his lifetime of scholarship, Patrick unpacks how energy, ecology and our political arrangements leave us in a predicament with no simple solutions. Before we can even begin to plan for the future, we need to understand the enormity of the biophysical challenges we will have to face - Patrick Ophuls helps us do just that. About Patrick Ophuls: Dr. Patrick Ophuls (who writes under the pen name William Ophuls) is an American political scientist, ecologist, independent scholar, and author. Patrick has a PhD in political science from Yale University and has been a prominent voice in the environmental movement since the 1970s. His award winning book in 1977 is on the bookshelves of most people I know. He has written 10 books including ‘Ecology and the Politics of Scarcity', ‘Plato's Revenge', ‘Politics in the Age of Ecology', and ‘Immoderate Greatness: Why Civilizations Fail'.   For Show Notes and More visit: https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/47-patrick-ophuls

Frank Schaeffer In Conversation with Carolyn Baker, Ph.D., exploring her latest book, Confronting Christofascism._____LINKSWWW.CAROLYNBAKER.NETCarolyn may be contacted at Carolyn@carolynbaker.net._____Carolyn Baker, Ph.D., was a psychotherapist in private practice for 17 years and a professor of psychology and history for 10. She is the author of 13 books including Navigating The Coming Chaos: A Handbook For Inner Transition (2011) and Sacred Demise: Walking The Spiritual Path of Industrial Civilization's Collapse (2009. She has also co-authored 4 books with Andrew Harvey. She manages her website at www.carolynbaker.net and publishes a subscription-based Daily News Digest which is a collection of news stories and inspiration focusing on the global crisis and options for navigating disruptive times. Carolyn offers life coaching and spiritual counseling in Boulder, Colorado and worldwide for people who want help with dealing with the unprecedented challenges of our time._____Will democracy in America prevail, or will it be usurped by a confluence of fascism and evangelical Christianity?In this book, the author traces the history of this unholy alliance and invites those recovering from the influence of fundamentalist religions, as well as the non-religious seeking to preserve the democratic experiment, to excise the toxic influences of religious authoritarianism from politics and personal life. Readers from all backgrounds will be enlightened and inspired by Baker's clear and incisive snapshot of this defining moment in our history. Writing from her upbringing as a fundamentalist Christian and her years of practicing psychotherapy, she offers a deep dive into the psychology of fundamentalism as well as specific guidelines for healing the wounds of immersion in a subculture of religious domination. Confronting Cristofascism is a practical guide to assessing the influence of religious trauma in our personal and public histories and committing to recover from it in order to become more whole individuals and pro-active citizens. It is required reading for every awake American._____In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer is a production of the George Bailey Morality in Public Life Fellowship.

Light pollution is excessive or obtrusive artificial light. It's a consequence of industrial civilization.  Too much artificial light can cause a host of problems, including disrupting ecosystems, causing adverse health effects, and wasting energy.  According to a new study led by researchers from the University of Exeter in the U.K., global light pollution has increased […]

Most of us are familiar with air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, and noise pollution.  But it turns out that light can also be a pollutant as well.  Light pollution is a consequence of industrial civilization.  Sources of light pollution include building interior and exterior lighting, advertising billboards, factories, commercial properties, streetlights, and sporting venues.       […]

Industrial civilization is killing the planet, and it's not good for human beings either. But how can we live without it? We are dependent and addicted. In this episode of The Green Flame, we ask what comes after and speak with two people: Lierre Keith, author of The Vegetarian Myth, Deep Green Resistance, Bright Green Lies, and more; and Michel Jacobi, an ecologist working in western Ukraine to preserve and revive ancient pastoral traditions and the Carpathian water buffalo. http://www.karpaten-bueffel.eu/en.html http://www.lierrekeith.com/ Our song for this episode is "Wake Up Call" by Nicholas Tippins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eIzJHVDM1I  

#25. October 23, 2019. Dr. John Cobb Jr. (94) presents his ideas at the October 2019 Ecological Civilization conference held in Seoul, South Korea (October 1-3, 2019) on how countries like China and Korea can transition from the current industrial civilization to a new Ecological Civilization. I also attended this important conference presenting my ideas on how Korea can adopt new measures of progress such as well-being and happiness indices and incorporate these into the City of Seoul and Korea's budgeting and governance systems. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mark-anielski/message

A powerful electromagnetic pulse could leave large portions of the globe without electricity. A major volcanic eruption — or nuclear winter — could place major strains on modern agriculture. As a civilization, are we prepared to handle challenges of this magnitude? And if not, can we become prepared?

This is a summary of our discussion of Elton Mayo's Social Problems of an Industrial Civilization - a second text from the famous Hawthorne Studies. Listen to Miranda cover the key points of the book and of our discussion from the full episode!Summaries are designed to deliver an overview of TAOP Episodes, or as stand-alone teaching and learning tools. They are useful both if you are a professional looking to refresh your memory about the particulars of this management theory, or if you are a student looking to get some background information to better understand your course content. Either way - check this out and let us know what you think and how we can best develop this new segment going forward!

In this concluding part of our discussion of The Social Problems of an Industrial Civilization - one of the texts comprising the famous Hawthorne Studies - we devote more attention to Mayo's social commentary, the methodological implications of qualitative empirical research as well as to the remaining three case studies. Learn more about what Mayo and colleagues did, how they came about to realize the significance of their findings, and why none of this has any bearing on the social problems of a post-WW2 industrial civilization.

For Episode 9 we turn to the famous Hawthorne Studies - a series of social experiments that gave rise to what is now a Human Resources Management approach to organizing work. Specifically we look at the second book published by Elton Mayo, The Social Problems of an Industrial Civilization. In this book, Mayo reports on a number of his research projects – including the studies in the Textile Mill in Philadelphia and the at the Hawthorne plant – and provides an ambitious social commentary on industrial society. In this, he dialogues with a number of authors, including Chester Barnard, and expresses some nostalgic views on the relationship between the individual, the collective, and technology. Mayo also argues for the development an understanding of humans as social beings by definition, eschewing ideas put forward by economics and traditional political scientists who espouse ideas of the likes of Hobbes, and the importance of field studies in scientific development.

Carolyn Baker was an adjunct professor of history and psychology for 11 years and a psychotherapist in private practice for 17 years.  Her mission is to offer emotional and spiritual tools for those who are becoming aware of the collapse of industrial civilization.   She is the author of Sacred Demise:  Walking The Spiritual Path of Industrial Civilization’s Collapse, Navigating the Coming Chaos:  A Handbook for Inner Transition, and her latest published in November 2013, Collapsing Consciously:  Transforming Truths for Turbulent Times.   She spoke with me on Religion For Life about developing resiliency and a sense of meaning and purpose for these “interesting” times.

The radical documentary End:Civ summarizes Derrick Jensen's important book “EndGame”. These are radical premises but, according to the documentary maker Franklin Lopez, proposals to be taken seriously. The post End:Civ – The documentary about bringing down industrial civilization appeared first on KPFA.
