Only rebellion will prevent an ecological apocalypse | George Monbiot | The Guardian

There is a lot of truth in this article. I especially like the following: ‘Humans are ultra-social mammals, constantly if subliminally aware of shifting social currents. Once we perceive that the status quo has changed, we flip suddenly from support for one state of being to support for another. When a committed and vocal 3.5% unites behind the demand for a new system, the social avalanche that follows becomes irresistible. Giving up before we have reached this threshold is worse than despair: it is defeatism.’
