There is a tendency to wait until something becomes so problematic that it can no longer be ignored and then to 'fire-fight' it. This reflects an attitude that the status quo must be maintained and any problems solved within the existing framework. The effect of delay can be catastrophic, as in the cases of global heating and biodiversity loss, and addressing such problems in this way can simply displace, proliferate, and substitute other problems, sometimes with the so-called 'cure' also having toxic effects that only later come to light, such is the urgency of a 'quick-fix'. While technology can have a role to play, it is not sufficient the authors argue, and does not address the roots of the problem. In this short work, some of the core issues that need to be addressed are identified, such as limits to growth and redistribution of wealth and power, what it is to be human, and to live a meaningful and fulfilling life, social justice, the role of the media, including social media, and the effects of scientism and the increasing domination of technological thinking. The climate emergency cannot be separated out from the dysfunctional nature of current dominant ideologies and economic models, and the situation needs to be seen as a whole, with the different factors being recognised as interdependent, requiring a holistic approach.

Dr. Michael Frost's CHOOSING LIFE...Guidelines to Avoiding Extinction is a comprehensive work of the highest order, combining his cross-cultural experience of the Great Way. He gives a refreshing and well-illustrated look into the Ancient Traditions of Tao. His autobiographical accounts of his experiences with these practices are of monumental importance for all people today. He shows that, with an open mind and heart, along with a modicum of disciplined attention, anyone can obtain achievement in these powerful practices. The origins of life energy management and spiritual practice have been traced with great care and much love from Ancient Africa to the present, giving credit to each of the branches of the human race along THE WAY. Most importantly, this wisdom has been distilled into powerful practices and disciplines that can be incorporated into our lives today as we strive to thrive and survive. This is an effort to show clear and present life force choices for helping to fulfill the CREATOR's purpose of all humankind.

“Mitch Kowalski has translated his considerable understanding of tomorrow’s legal profession into an original, provocative and entertaining narrative.” —Professor Richard Susskind, author of The End of Lawyers? “This is the most innovative law practice management book I’ve ever seen. Mitch has deftly combined an engaging novel about the lives of working lawyers with an illuminating treatise on how law firms must respond to extraordinary change in the legal marketplace. Avoiding Extinction is as entertaining as it is instructive -- and it couldn’t be more timely.” —Jordan Furlong, Partner, Edge International “This is a must read for managing partners, and for all lawyers under the age of 50. Written as a parable, once you pick it up it’s difficult to put down. And it literally screams relevance to the lives of those lawyers today who worry about the sustainability of the current model of legal practice. Big firm or small. City or rural – no matter, this book is for you. Can the law be both a profession and a business? Is it possible to escape the tyranny of the billable hour? Is it realistic to imagine being a truly happy lawyer in private practice in the twenty-first century? You bet – and Mitch Kowalski shows us how! —Ian Holloway QC, Dean of Law, The University of Calgary “Avoiding Extinction is the most original, far-thinking and innovative book on transforming the way that law is practised that I have ever read. Mitch has taken the traditional law firm and turned it upside down. In the process he has reworked the law firm model and given us an insight into how a firm could be structured and run. If you are looking for a creative vision into what a new, truly different law firm could look like, then this book is manna from heaven.” —David J. Bilinsky, Practice Management Advisor, lawyer and writer on law practice management and technology. Creator of the law blog, Thoughtful Legal Management.

If you are driving off a cliff, someone telling you to slow down isn't much of a help. (Well, slowing down while you turn in a new direction is likely to be a good idea.) By burning fossil fuels, humanity is now driving itself off a climate cliff toward extinction. We need to completely stop burning "stuff" (fossil fuels, or anything else) for energy. Yet to thrive we really do need lots of energy -- in fact, even more than we now are using. This book shows how we can meet both of these needs by creating a new infrastructure context in which existing technologies will work far better than they do now. Not only will we get all our energy at less than one tenth the cost per kilowatt-hour, we will speed up long-distance transportation at least tenfold, plus give everyone a chance to enjoy space travel. And that is just the beginning.

"A must read, one-of-a-kind, experiential Ultimate Self-Preservation Guide for every individual who expects to exist, survive and thrive in life - to avoid immediate economic extinction in a relentlessly chaotic society.??.." Author, Patrick J. O'Guinn, Sr.What Readers Will SeePredators, Survivors and Prey ("PS&P") is a refreshing, insightful and reflective 21st century way of seeing our daily economic existence, survival methods, and avoiding becoming prey of the day, presented through the author's chance observations of animal behaviors in natural history museum exhibits. ??This book was inspired by the author's trips to the New York City Natural History Museum during college visits and trips to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in 2006 - 2010. The immersive experiential nature of the book will immediately grab and connect each reader to the overarching visual messages of extreme predatory action forces, strategic individual survival methods and imminent peril positions that lead to becoming prey of the day. Photos of animal museum exhibits immediately connect readers with the natural animal kingdom concepts to contrast with the world you live in now, for a new transformational "seeing experience."?The power and daily application of Predators, Survivors and Prey characteristics is richly inescapable to the readers' senses, yet, certain to evoke an unlimited range of personal, action - oriented responses, to each characteristic presented in the book. Readers will be exposed to the author's unique visual column concept and visual layers concept for processing daily challenging scenarios, the author's use of nuanced reflective spaces, and a number of artfully - placed "blank space" reflection opportunities. ?? Now, you can create your best experiential power to see and act in any situation to avoid economic extinction with Predators, Survivors and Prey?Patrick J. O'Guinn, Sr.
