A Satirical Critique of Capitalism

What it's doing to our planet

- & what we can do about it

WHY I WROTE THIS:

Hello there!

I'm Gramskii. I spent thirty years in advertising selling people things they didn't need with money they didn't have. Then I noticed the planet was on fire and realised I'd been holding the matches. So I wrote a book. (Consider it a form of community service.)

The problem with the climate conversation is that it's a giant jigsaw with a missing box lid. One group focuses on the pieces that look like "sky" (the environment), another works on the bits that look like "trees" (fossil fuels), and a third arranges the straight bits around the edge (politics). But nobody can see the big picture, so we end up arguing instead of understanding the root cause and actually doing something about it.

This isn't an accident. Confusion is extremely useful if you're trying to make money from a planet that's going up in flames. (Funny, that.)

So I've tried to draw the big picture. None of it is rocket science; I've kept things deliberately simple, because understanding the problem shouldn't be frightening or difficult. It really doesn't need to be. And when enough of us do understand it, we become something the current system just won't be able to handle.

What I'm hoping for is someone with real influence to read this and think "f*ck me, that really hits the nail on the head" and then tell the world. Until that person turns up, you'll do nicely. 😊

Let's get to work.

Best wishes and thanks,

Graham / Gramskii x
