Call for articles on "Less Energy"
Dear Green activist,
Two overwhelming catastrophes loom over our planet: an increase in global
warming and a decrease in available oil, leading to unending war.
Overdeveloped societies need to dramatically decrease their energy
consumption. Most progressive environmentalists limit themselves to
suggestions for life style changes which can either be a beginning step or a
diversionary token.
Synthesis/Regeneration: A Magazine of Green Social Thought seeks to address
these and related topics in its Winter 2007 issue. The S/R Editorial Board
invites submissions that go beyond individual sacrifice and explore
structural changes that would massively reduce the use of energy. Possible
themes could include, but are not limited to:
* How citizens are boxed into consumption, regardless of intention.
* Wasteful energy in food production (e.g., chemicalized agriculture,
meat).
* Trees and global warming.
* Mass transportation/less transportation.
* Redesigning living space (e.g., collective living, co-housing,
underground homes).
* The grid vs. local energy production.
* How can we respond to a rapid decrease in available energy?
* What level of consumption can truly renewable energy satisfy?
* The use of energy in producing renewable energy.
* Wasteful energy in the workplace.
* Industries that society does not need (e.g., war, insurance, lead
mining).
* Legislation for sustainable energy policies.
* Economic disruptions due to reducing and eliminating industries.
* Generating meaningful jobs to replace exploitative ones while protecting
our planet.
* Problems with mainstream explanations of all of the above.
In order to be included in the Winter 2007 issue, we will need to RECEIVE
submissions by October 1, 2006. (Let us know if you would like to write but
would have difficulty meeting this deadline.) Articles should generally be
500 to 2500 words.
Please send submissions to: fitzdon@aol.com
