Ursula K. Le Guin
“I don’t know what ‘human nature’ is. Maybe leaving descriptions of what we wipe out is part of human nature.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Word for World Is Forest

Edward Abbey
“One way or another they were going to slow if not halt the advance of Technocracy, the growth of Growth, the spread of the ideology of the cancer cell.”
Edward Abbey, The Monkey Wrench Gang

“Nothing scares neoliberals more than radical science allied with social movements, but until such a union arises, they have little to fear.”
Troy Vettese, Half-Earth Socialism: A Plan to Save the Future from Extinction, Climate Change and Pandemics

“Environmentalists think that their political moderation will be rewarded by the powerful, who will allow them to play a small role in shaping the future. Yet the elite and their neoliberal brain trusts have no need to make concessions, when [solar radiation management] is close at hand and the environmental movement is weakened by infighting. The powerful will only concede what is taken from them, and only a broad and radical movement can force such concessions.”
Troy Vettese, Half-Earth Socialism: A Plan to Save the Future from Extinction, Climate Change and Pandemics

“Despite our knowledge of what needs to be done, carbon emissions increase and mass extinctions continue relentlessly. Capital is at the helm, blindly steering the ship of fools towards ecological disaster. Unable to feel the wind or listen to its shouting passengers, capital can sense only price signals to guide its passage. In this way, capital destroys the world it cannot see.”
Troy Vettese, Half-Earth Socialism: A Plan to Save the Future from Extinction, Climate Change and Pandemics
