    The climate will be a lifelong issue

    When our behaviour and knowledge don’t match one another, this is known as Cognitive Dissonance. The term refers to a situation in which we have conflicting feelings, thoughts and behaviours, creating an uncomfortable inner tension. It only disappears when one or other of the components changes and harmony is restored. The Norwegian psychologist Dr Per Espen Stoknes writes that many people behave in the same way as smokers do, when it comes to climate change: I smoke. I also know smoking leads to cancer.* Action and knowledge are at odds with each other and generate the type of discomfort known …

    Saturday, May 30th, 2020 by Uwe Heitkamp European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said today: “The recovery plan turns the immense challenge we face into an opportunity, not only by supporting the recovery but also by investing in our future: the European Green Deal and digitalization will boost jobs and growth, the resilience of our societies and the health of our environment. This is Europe’s moment. Our willingness to act must live up to the challenges we are all facing. With Next Generation EU we are providing an ambitious answer.” The European Commission has unveiled details of an unprecedented …

    Find that calm point in yourself

    Erika Dux (65), a doctor of medicine from the University of Düsseldorf and trained in a wide range of additional disciplines, such as Chinese-Japanese Bo-Meridian Shiatsu therapy, has been living in Portugal for 35 years and works privately as a doctor. She has three grown–up daughters. Why do people become ill? I’m afraid I really can’t answer that question for you. What are the causes of illness? For different reasons: people get an infection, have a genetic illness or a metabolic disorder, or are affected by exhaustion and intoxication caused by pollution, environmental degradation, or precarious housing. How do you …

    Nº 35 – The first 5,000 years of debt

    Saturday, May 23rd, 2020 by Uwe Heitkamp At a time when the most densely populated cities are slowly returning to public life as normal, here in the countryside we are reflecting on the essentials that we need to survive a crisis: good bread, our own honey, locally produced olive oil, carob flour, the nuts from which peanut butter is made, agricultural products, fresh foods like goat’s cheese and fleur de sel – all locally produced and much needed for a good breakfast, lunch or dinner. Before lunch, I harvest some rocket and endive leaves from the vegetable patch and wash …

    Nº 34 – Alentejo: the ideal place for the end of globalisation

    Wednesday, 20th May 2020 by Leila Dregger Imagine – yes, I know this calls for a lot of fantasy as it’s highly unlikely to ever happen – but, despite everything, just imagine that a pandemic might put an end to all global trade forever. There would no longer be any cheap mass-produced goods coming from China and the container ships from Asia would no longer dock in our ports. It wouldn’t be just the whales who started to live with less stress. It would be ruinous for banks, and lots of multinationals would start collapsing like dominoes. The shelves in …

    Nº 26 – If my name were António Costa…

    Thursday, the 30th Abril 2020 An Essay  by Theobald Tiger … some decisions would be made very differently. I spent a long time wondering whether I should start my story this way, or whether I should tell you this story at all. Because I can also do things very differently. So, I’d better start again and keep it short. If I were not a journalist, but instead a responsible prime minister, I would have spent these last few days thinking intensely about whether I should even be distributing state financial aid to sick companies at this point. This is a …
