I believe that what happens in the world every day is the natural result of preceding events. There are so many variables at play that reality cannot be simplified as if it were predefined, planned, or designed at a table by a few individuals. “Strategies” are plans created this way,…

global warming, climate disruption, and biodiversity loss
Global warming is out of “human control”. What comes next?
With full recognition of the work carried out by millions of committed leaders, scientists, and institutions – among them the United Nations, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the World Meteorological Organization, and the International Energy Agency – one conclusion is now unavoidable. After 30 years of “UN Climate Change…

2025 “OPEC International Seminar” shows fundamental misunderstanding within (global) politics
There is this fundamental misunderstanding from (global) politics, corporations would act in the “common interest”. No. Corporations act to maximise their individual profits and will use all legal possibilities to achieve this goal. Adam Smith (1723-1790), the “father of capitalism”, was already aware of and very clear about that. Having…

2025 BRICS summit shows potential for global democracy
Nothing justifies the killing of another human being, nothing justifies the attack on an another state (e.g. the attack from the “Russian Federation” and its helping countries on “Ukraine”), and nothing justifies in our view the suppression of different cultures within a country, as long as there is a peaceful…
