This is being reposted because understanding it is crucial to dealing with our current socio-eco-econ-ethical Crisis.
There's plenty of evidence indicating both public and private Powers-That-Be are, for the most part, relying strictly on the reductionist method of analysis when working on our current, worldwide problems. It appears little thought is given to the holistic approach. If such really is true, then efforts to mitigate or eliminate those problems most likely will fall short.
All the primary aspects of our Crisis are interconnected, and THE main problem is ecological overshoot. Ocean acidification, excessive natural resource depletion, pollution of water, air, and land, soil degradation, food insecurity, famine, decreasing fresh water availability, drought, climate change, social unrest, and more are all caused by humans engaging in eco-overshoot. This all means the problem is extremely complex, and that means addressing it must include a holistic synthesis. "Systems thinking" is required.
