C.J. Campbell's "Silver Linings"
|
|
| |
Campbell sometimes ends his speeches with It may end up a better world, freed from the widespread gross excesses of to-day. In his newsletter of December 2004, he provides a more complete explanation.
"Many see oil depletion as a kind of doomsday message heralding the end of the modern world, but Stephen Hamilton-Bergin has written a valuable new book that takes an optimistic line that a better world will rise out of the ashes.
The author thinks that some kind of crisis is almost to be welcomed to dispose of worthless government and kleptocratic management, leading to some form of a new better life for the survivors."
The final slide in Campbell's recent slide show, "The Second Great Depression," is called "Silver Lingings," and makes the following points:
A new regionalism with local markets
New attitudes : non-consumeristic society
People learn to live in better harmony with
• themselves
• each other
• the Environment in which Nature has ordained them to live
But the transition will be tough
