Great article. Challenging topic. You’ve drawn a good comparison between the WEF/ARC big society models and a small localised society option that is forever overlooked as if it isn’t to even be considered.
I like the option of localised communities with nature/unpaved areas nearby, where people live less driven, more exploratory lives. I don’t mind people living in cities as long as they don’t possess that attitude of superiority and inevitability that sometimes accompanies.
I can see why JP wants to go head to head with WEF etc in order to counter it, but I would hope freedom of choice and the economic possibility of living simplified lives is included in whatever they envisage.
