The case of logging and clear felling the proposed Great Koala National Park - On Consultation and consent 1/3

Times have rapidly changed. The old school extractive ways were perceived as legitimate under colonial extractive regimes.

Today we are confronted with an urgency of interlocking global crises of the environment and democracy. Anthropocene defaunation and an increasingly uninhabitable climate exposes human well-being under increasing threat.

'Business as usual' is no longer tenable. A new set of circumstances demands a rapid transition and consensual modes of action. Trust and legitimacy can be generated by genuine participatory deliberation of all 'stakeholders' and societal institutions.

People increasingly claim ownership of their planet and question the legality of the commodification and financialization of their only home.

Consultation and cooperation in a democratic civil society must consult all 'stakeholders' in public (digital or f2f) for a consensual outcome. The operating party has to face the affected community in person in public meetings. Stewards of biodiversity and the climate have to be present 'at the table'.
Discussions and negotiations should be public, transparent and take all aspects (externalities) into account.

Stop deforestation and clearfelling in a climate emergency
Stop eradicating ecosystems in a biodiversity crisis
Stop the denial of reality
Stop logging the proposed Great Koala National Park now

There is no consent.

@dangillmor When looking at the US health system (or should I say “health crisis”) I really fear that I see the future of our situation in Germany if we do not stop the #commodification and #financialisation of German health institutions.

Trading in #bnpparibas halted. Hard to say whether we are looking at afterschocks or preliminary seismic events here. #capitalism #financialisation #crisis

From the water industry to care homes, a horribly familiar story.
