Like many who follow OVERSHOOT, I’m aware that the planetary health crisis touches every aspect of life today. Equally, I see the increasing difficulty of staying values-aligned when life pressures us to use the tools of the system, like AI, to stay current. I reduce my planetary impact by not owning a car, being childfree, eating lower on the food chain, buying less, sharing more, the list goes on. And I talk, with anyone who will listen and allow me to illuminate the ecological considerations in any topic of conversation. Normalising these conversations feels like a tiny buffer against despair.
