## Topia

> [en] It’s true that we’re not going to get utopia. The planet has already warmed by one degree Celsius. Most of the coral reefs are going to die, and many of the glaciers will melt. Climate change is here, leaving grubby human fingerprints on parched, burned, flooded and melted landscapes. But we don’t have to settle for dystopia. It’s going to be worse, but it doesn’t have to be bleak. We can have a “topia,” an ordinary future where we go about ordinary lives in cities on stilts, missing what we’ve lost but looking forward to better things. There is light in the future that doesn’t come from burning.

Tout dépend de ce que l’on considère avoir perdu. Plus on est privilégié et plus cette *topia* sera difficile à vivre. Ce qui serait peut-être plus juste ?

Je lisais aussi un article sur le triptyque guerres-famines-épidémies qui nous pend au nez avec la raréfaction de l’énergie. Cela commencera probablement par toucher les plus pauvres.

Un peu moins juste.
