The same force that, on one hand threatens to lock in digital feudalism, is also tearing apart the tight weave of the dominant system—and, in doing so, offers an unexpected and urgent chance to reweave society’s fabric before it entirely unravels.

AI and Ecocivilization: Exploring the Perils and Unexpected Opportunities open.substack.com/pub/jeremy…
AI and Ecocivilization are both deeply transformative to our world system: one is occurring now, the other is a vision and invitation. How do they relate?

The story of evolution is often framed as a relentless contest in which only the strongest survive. Yet life’s greatest leaps forward have emerged through relationship—when distinct organisms learned to support one another and become part of something larger.

For generations, we have treated endless economic growth as the measure of progress—even when that growth deepens inequality and pushes the living Earth beyond its limits.

For every $1 of new wealth earned by the bottom 90%, a billionaire gains $1.7 million.
This is not a flaw in the system. It is a system functioning exactly as designed: to maximize the wealth pump.

The unraveling of the natural world is not inevitable. It is the result of systems built around extraction, endless growth, and separation from the web of life that sustains us.

We are told that we are fundamentally disconnected from the world around us. But evolutionary biology and system sciences tell us something different: we are a deeply interconnected web of relationships.

We are living through a moment that asks us to look honestly at the systems driving ecological breakdown. The destruction of the natural world is not happening by accident.

What if the crises we face aren't inevitable, but simply the result of the story we’ve been told to live by?
For thousands of years, we've normalized a framework of domination, accepting patriarchy and hierarchy as "the water we swim in."

Capitalism is built on constant expansion. It must keep growing, extracting, consuming, and finding new markets in order to survive.
But on a finite planet, endless growth is not a sign of strength. It is a warning.

What if everything we’ve been taught about human nature is wrong?
For generations, the mainstream narrative has conditioned us to believe that humans are inherently selfish, competitive, and entirely separate from the natural world.

Each year, wealthy nations provide roughly $200 billion in foreign aid — while the global economic system drains an estimated $3 trillion from developing nations.
This is not generosity. It is imbalance.

What if the crisis of our civilization is not a failure of progress, but a failure of imagination?

“A cogent case for a bold alternative to capitalism.” —Kirkus Reviews
I was delighted to see this recognition of Ecocivilization from Kirkus Reviews.
It's one thing for the book to connect with those who already know we need systems change.

Receiving a starred review from Booklist for Ecocivilization is deeply meaningful precisely because Booklist reviewers are coming from mainstream culture.

What if the future we need is not something to invent from scratch, but something to remember?
David Orr’s words capture the heart of Ecocivilization: we are living through a crisis of our own making, but we are not without direction.

The system isn’t broken. It is working exactly as it was designed to work.
That is the difficult truth we need to face.
