Thanks for your elaborate answer, Elisabeth. And you're very right. I try to sketch an ideal world for inspiration. In other articles I sketch the road towards it (and it's best to make our human lives extremely simple and humble).

And then we have to find the way to make it work for real. It will involve local production in line with biodiversity and using all materials to the optimum by upcycling waste streams of all.

My best guess is that we won't find the real solutions before we are prepared to involve magic (quantum physics and the observer) and really create together with the universe. In humbleness, respecting all other creatures and tapping into the vast wisdom of Gaia.

It doesn't fit in one story. And for many people, my vision is too far-fetched to even start believing in it. So that's the packaging in my stories. Sometimes both feet in the here-and-now. Soemtimes giving a peek into the future. Short-term and longer-term.

Thanks for thinking with me. And putting the finger on the sore spot. Scale will never work when we won't do it in ecosystems' way. Local. Embracing the abundance of nature. And creating everything we need as humans with a wisdom beyond words.
