We are on the brink of a series of catastrophes of our own making that humankind will be exceptionally lucky to survive. There is a path ahead, but being able to see it and where it leads will require – at least from most westerners – a difficult feat of imagination. It will need us to cast aside many of the things we have been taught to most closely identify with. It will demand of us a realization that our most cherished values are actually harmful.
