I don't see them...

A reminder of what they are willing to do, while Ukraine has a little expedition going on inside Russia?

Basically all countries that started having some economic growth since 1950 will have this spike effect. The countries that were already rich had a slow population transition, the other ones a fast one. The short version of that story is that in the latter child mortality went down slowly, and in the the former it was a quick proces. People take some time to adapt to this new reality, which means that for a shirt period of time 10 of 10 children will grow up to have kids of their own. After a while, the amount of children goes down to 2 or less, and growth stops. In Europe, this lade population multiply by two or three, in North Africa for example it can be up to times five or more. And in modern societies, this kind of growth tends to concentrate in cities.

As someone who lives under representative representation, I totally agree that FPTP should go. But being against that system doesn't have to ve a leftist strategy. I think everyone who does not feel represent by the two big parties can get behind a change there. Pushing that idea across the spectrum could be helpful. It might even be an idea to start an alliance party with as only program point an overdue constitutional reform. You wouldn't need other policies: simply reform & hold new elections as soon as possible afterwards

Made me wonder: how likely would it be that a modern ginkgo could not reproduce with an ancient one?

You do have direct control over fisheries as much as you do over straws. But indeed, don't invalidate. Say "if you like X, you might also want to do Y which has an even greater impact"

No matter how much we fuck it up, this rock will always be more liveable than anything we can realistically find elsewhere. This planet is our spaceship, we better start treating it like one.

IIRC, this actually happens. When the balance is disturbed, the mushrooms go wild and destroy young sapplings. Could be I recall incorrectly and it's actually other species. I cannot recommend The Mother Tree enough, it goes into great detail of the history of research into this

And we are still increasing the rate at which we are making it worse...

So, "express network" instead of "highway". But other than marketing/communication, I didn't see much concrete suggestions of how to make them more inclusive.

...any economic system that does not take externalised costs into account. This is not unique to capitalism.

Yeah, I'd be quite surprised to see large increases in tourism anywhere in a +4° world...
