We had an interesting chat the other day in the office, about how some companies really dominate the conversation about particular futures **ahem** @Meta — my colleague @_William_Brown did a great job of unpacking this sentiment in this article.
We explores the way that visioning is being used to monopolise the future before it even happens. Yet, by looking at how visioning is used negatively, we can see how to use it to empower and democratise decision making. https://t.co/7RE4Yun1dt

It’s hard explaining to a 10-year-old that we’re marching again because there’s still a long way to go... “Why won’t they listen? Our world can’t take this for much longer.” #COP26  #FridaysForFuture #UprootTheSystem #ClimateStrike
