Check 1 - Biosphere and People: The Biophysical World

The Hidden Power

The first and fundamental principle of this series - and indeed this entire way of looking at things - reflects the unseen, creeping processes causing catastrophic climate change. Why do we need this? How are we to think about it? What can we do?

Talking points:

1. industrialisation
2. limits on human behaviour
3. secondary effects of climate change
4. our personal relationship to the biosphere
5. self-harm as an image for how we treat our environment
6. the future generations act in Wales
7. boundaries
8. constitutions filter through to all activities
9. responsibility at different levels
10. what people with higher incomes can do
11. focus on where you live
