We’re facing an existential environmental threat - but is there enough time to fight back against the increasing momentum of tech-related planetary collapse?
That’s the 8 billion-person question. And here to help us answer it is a returning Gerry McGovern, back to share everything he’s learned during the making of his new book, ‘99th Day: A Warning About Technology’.
Throughout this insightful discussion, Gaël and Gerry wrestle with a central thought:
Does technological advancement automatically mean societal and environmental decline?
The pair discuss Gerry’s unique writing style, his journey from rock’n’rolla to technology journalist, how he found his calling and hopes for the future.
Gerry McGovern and Gaël also dive into:
Is digital still a positive transformer for the environment?
Lessons we can learn from indigenous societies
Is ‘AI’ a useful tool, or a crude chainsaw?
The second order effects of mining
What is the ‘Growth Death Cult’?
Can we turn it all around?
And much, much more.
