Billionaires are often squeezed by autocrats
Billionaires who support autocrats have no guarantee that the autocrat will grant them benefits once elected. Having an autocrat’s ear does not necessarily last. It is quite common to see autocrats discard their supporters. “He who can destroy a thing has the real control of it.” Dune, Frank Herbert. This means that when you bring…

Teleworking
Teleworking and flexible working hours have many advantages and are easy to implement. The legal framework is already in place, teleworking has been experimented during COVID, and many office tasks are now digitized and can therefore be performed remotely.

Mission Possible – Options
Achieving long-term social and environmental development goals requires a systemic approach. In every country, there are very different opinions on what should be done. We must live together. No group, whether on the right, left, or center, can impose its will on the rest of the population. Punishing part of the population is unnecessary. Governing…

Our lives depend on the upcoming midterms
Aggression serves no purpose. Insults, lack of restraint, denigration, wanting to punish others, and violence have serious consequences. intransigence has serious consequences on both the left and the right; it is the best way to loose elections. It creates enemies. Improving the world does not mean accusing others. We need more tolerance on both the…

Societies in which each individual acts in his or her own interest rather than in the general interest live less well than those that choose the interests of the group. Paradoxically, those who think of their personal…

We are breathing uranium
Uranium is not used responsibly. It is used in ammunitions during war. When ammunition explode, uranium is dispersed into dust that is carried by the wind or spreads into waterways. We are all polluted by wars, even those far away. It is used in agriculture to sterilize crops. Farmers are the first victims because they…

Robots use the internet to communicate with each other and gain power over humans
60% of internet traffic is generated by machines communicating with each other. They distribute views, comments, and likes. They rate products and services. This obstructs public debate, influences humans, and therefore hinders democracy. It causes massive pollution because it consumes enormous amounts of electricity for computing and cooling servers. The use of AI must be…

No to piecemeal solutions, let’s change the system
Le systémisme – France Inter: https://www.radiofrance.fr/franceinter/podcasts/en-quete-de-politique/en-quete-de-politque-du-dimanche-11-mai-2025-7099785 To protect the environment, we need to emit less CO2 and pollute less. Governments are proposing to subsidize the purchase of electric vehicles. This is a half-measure. What about truck traffic, container ships, and the consequences of lithium and steel mining? To really tackle the issue of transport-related pollution,…
