Wonderfully stimulating! Looking after our current environment is the thing. If we can learn to do that today we can maybe look after our future environments as well. Development is only a problem when it denies sustainability. Creativity is only a problem when it denies sustainability. What is so difficult about living within limits? Is it not the common sense that you hope for?
Hi Mart, I guess the everlasting problem is how to adapt cognitively to a dynamic environment that may well be proceeding at a different temporal scale to the other environmental selection pressures that act on our morphology. Fundamentally, it reconsiders the unit of selection, again, but, even if that is known, what control to do we have over natural processes acting at the scale? In the case of climate change, mitigating with broad brush strokes may prove pointless and ineffectual if important processes are untouched. Sustainable, sensible limits are as much a function of this knowledge as are the short-term mitigation actions. Stimulating indeed.
Howdy would you mind letting me know which hosting
company you’re working with? I’ve loaded your blog
in 3 completely different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most.
Can you recommend a good hosting provider at a honest price?
Cheers, I appreciate it!
