‘Climate change’ is an umbrella term which covers the whole gamut of the ecological crisis, such as ocean warming, deforestation, and the mass extinction we are causing. But it also includes an existential crisis for us - ‘the human phenomenon’. We have all the technical knowledge we need to fix climate change. What’s stopping us, though, is ourselves. There may be many and complex reasons for this, but the essential one is because we do not know who, or what, we really are. Nor, even more mysteriously, do we know that we don’t know who we are.
