Samenvatting

It seems easier to talk about the end of humanity than about giving up the internet or giving up driving. It is argued that in our developed "first" world, we now need development aid ourselves. We are “blind” at the mercy of technological “progress”, which we continue to see against our better judgement, as the way to a heaven on earth! We are working 24 7 in every conceivable direction to bring new technologies to the market, preferably digitally, because then they can be further developed directly with data and at the expense of users, the entire world population. We need development aid. The few peoples who still live completely ecologically sustainable
lives must gradually become our teachers, so that BigTech companies no longer determine our future. After a few months of quarantine, world leaders such as Elon Musk and Biden would learn from, for example, real Aborigines to turn the tide, stop using all superfluous technology and work in harmony with nature. To
feel our connection to life rather than technology. Personal responsibility for ecology instead of possessed by possession.
