July 10: Sciencing and Philosophizing on Threads in #SystemsThinking

Extending a presentation from the 67th Annual Meeting of the #InternationalSocietyForTheSystemsSciences, #GarySMetcalf and @daviding are jointly exploring how #systemschange may be approached differently via the philosophical history of American #pragmatism, and post-colonial (contextural-dyadic) thinking.

@PIK_climate Indeed. People in the position of really knowing & crafting the calls to action are failing in their motivational quest thru pure linguistics alone.

Not #ClimateCrisis > #PlanetaryCrisis.
Even #LifeasUsualCrisis.
Not #HumanRights > #HumanExtinction.

Imperative to translate #science into mainstream values + vice versa…w/ goal of xforming mainstream values. #UTOK #SystemsChange #SystemicChange #sciencecomms

I wrote about this a lot this year: How, yes Russia's invasion of #Ukraine has inevitably worsened global hunger due to over-reliance on grain imports for calories in the majority of developing nations.

But the failure to get food where it needs to be, globally, is merely a symptom of a far more worrying looming crisis - how climate change and protectionism will see the food system as we know it collapse, possibly within 5-10 years #climate #food #famine #systemschange https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/02/us/politics/russia-ukraine-food-crisis.html

Appreciating the focus here by NPR and Julia Simon on #systemschange AND #behaviorchange. Yes and yes. “Many people are focusing on how to reduce their #carbonfootprint for next year — such as taking one less flight or eating less meat. We have advice on how to set climate resolutions for 2023.” https://www.npr.org/2022/12/29/1145952448/have-you-made-your-new-years-climate-resolution-yet #climateaction #climateresolution #newyearsresolution #carbonfootprint #plantbaseddiet

Lately, I’ve been reading a lot of housing, transportation, and climate change plans from various US cities and “All my life I had to fight” popped in my head. #SystemsChange #Disability #Equity
