We've known for decades that climate change is an existential crisis. For just as long, we've seen the complete failure of our institutions to rise to the challenge. Fossil fuel interests maintain a stranglehold on political and economic power. Even though we have seen growing concern from everyday people, civil society has succeeded only in pressuring decision makers to adopt watered-down policies. Is there any hope of achieving the systemic change we need? Dana R. Fisher argues that there is a realistic path forward for climate action—but only through mass mobilization that responds to the growing severity and frequency of disastrous events. She assesses the current state of affairs and shows why public policy and private-sector efforts have been ineffective. Spurred by this lack of progress, climate activism has become increasingly confrontational. Fisher examines the radical flank of the climate movement: its emergence and growth, its use of direct action, and how it might evolve as the climate crisis worsens. She considers when and how activism is most successful, identifying the importance of creating community, capitalizing on shocking moments, and cultivating resilience. Clear-eyed yet optimistic, Saving Ourselves offers timely insights on how social movements can take power back and open windows of opportunity for transformative climate action.Ver libro

Observe Possibilities. Entangle Possibilities. Create Possibilities. Throw spaghetti against the wall and see what sticks. Several years ago, I was approached by Carolyn Wyman, author of “The Great American Chocolate Chip Cookie Book” to write a book about Otis Spunkmeyer Cookies. I am co-founder of Otis Spunkmeyer Cookies with my husband, but no one starts a company alone. I told her that Otis Spunkmeyer was about many things besides cookies, and I wrote stories to prove it. Carolyn agreed, indicating my most fascinating stories had nothing to do with cookies. She suggested I compile my “you can’t make this up” stories of improbable possibilities. My entrepreneurial stories are of Robert C. Brown and Company, investment advisors, and Otis Spunkmeyer Cookies and Burritos. Triple 888 Manufacturing, the sheet metal company that created the oven to bake Otis Spunkmeyer cookies. Sentimental Journeys, the DC3 airline that promoted Otis Spunkmeyer. New Shoes, Old Souls Dance Company, Yoga Garden Dancers, Heterodoxy Magazine, and George Magazine. Yes, I did meet with John F. Kennedy Jr., to incubate George. I also took Joe DiMaggio to Las Vegas and Van Morrison sang “Moondance” to me. Albert Einstein is one of my heroes. I have daughters. These narratives are a memorialization of my improbable possibilities. My spaghetti-walling spirit propagated waves. The most powerful quantum computers can’t negotiate infinite waves of possibilities. Artificial intelligence generates probable possibilities. Human intelligence imagines improbable possibilities. Artificial intelligence exists on codes and algorithms. Human intelligence is nurtured by thinking with thoughtfulness. It actualizes imagination, and spaghetti-walls improbable possibilities. This is not a treatise on mindfulness. It is not an AI bashing, or a self-help book. Primarily, I am spaghetti-walling this book to entertain you. I’ve been determined to make waves.Ver libro

The human brain is often described as the most intricate and remarkable organ in the known universe. It serves as the control center for every thought, emotion, movement, and sensation we experience, seamlessly integrating billions of neural connections to create the essence of who we are. Despite centuries of scientific inquiry, the brain remains a profound mystery—an organ that not only governs our basic survival but also fuels creativity, innovation, and the very consciousness that allows us to ponder its complexity. What makes the brain so fascinating is its duality: it is both fragile and resilient, capable of extraordinary feats yet vulnerable to a wide range of disorders. Its 86 billion neurons form networks that enable everything from the rhythmic beating of the heart to the abstract contemplation of art, philosophy, and science. This complexity has driven countless researchers to explore its depths, seeking to understand how such a compact structure can hold the vastness of human thought, memory, and emotion. Throughout history, our understanding of the brain has evolved dramatically. Early civilizations believed that the heart was the seat of intelligence, while the brain was considered secondary. It wasn’t until the work of ancient scholars like Hippocrates and later neurologists such as Thomas Willis and Santiago Ramón y Cajal that the brain was recognized as the epicenter of human experience. Today, advanced imaging technologies allow us to observe the brain in action, mapping areas responsible for speech, movement, and even complex emotions. Yet, for all our progress, we have only begun to scratch the surface of its potential.Ver libro
