The PallasCeres Report: An Energy Transformation Plan to Guide an Intelligent Physical Contraction and Metaphysical Expansion of Society Away From Fossil Fuels

Overview<i>The PallasCeres Report</i> is The REAL Green New Deal's version of the many 'energy transition plans' intended to aid the societal shift to '100% renewable energy.'Designed in its entirety for well-meaning political actors, it's also a valuable resource for anyone interested in energy and building the new world.<i>PallasCeres</i> is a great companion to <i>A New Earth Synthesis</i>, which delves more heavily into metaphysics, steps anew into the "climate change" diversion, and peers a bit more into what sustainable energy might actually look like.​DescriptionThe Green New Deal has become the global emblem for combatting climate change and averting planetary disaster. But it couldn’t be more wrong in its characterization of the problem and prescription for what to do about it. Masquerading as the pinnacle of liberal progress, it would lead us down a path just a destructive as the one we’re already on.This comprehensive exposé–plan—at once analytical, philosophical, political, and an accessible, heartfelt call to action—maps an alternative to the scores of energy transition plans drunk on illusory ‘tweakerism’ and political correctness. Grounded in sober ecology and metaphysics, it outlines what would actually be required to wean society off fossil fuels, avert catastrophic collapse, and claim a sustainable path worthy of dignified human beings.Part 1 covers the failed diagnoses and cures of the Green New Deal with an updated version of <i>Eye of the Needle </i>and a foray into the neglected metaphysical nature of reality. Part 2 explores alternative cures, addressing spiritual reconnection, a physical contraction of the human enterprise, and the need for a radical transformation of societal infrastructure. Part 3 covers detailed policy recommendations that could bring about those cures, accompanied by a proposed budget for operationalization in the U.S.This is unlike any other book or commentary on the Green New Deal. It is not a Marxist critique that presumes socialist techno-industrial society to be more sustainable than capitalist techno-industrial society. It does not outline the litany of problems with “renewables” only to conclude that they're still better than fossil fuels. It is not a vague call for ‘degrowth’ accompanied by a ‘circular economy.’ Nor does it champion elusive rhetoric about free energy that would simply continue to power our destructive system. It's a giant leap outside the box, detailing why soulless modern civilization is unsustainable and how an entirely new way of being can be born at this pivotal time.
