Here's a story I wrote to this end recently — to show how these transitions could start in American communities:

More than a singular story, the idea is actually a movement of stories (some of which could be bootstrapped onto this first template) — people being able to remix/adapt a story like this, to fit local contexts and places, and serve this change happening in their own places.

Also, Max Ajl's "A People's Green New Deal" is one of the best aesthetics I've come across: https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/48775

I read the intro and then went straight ahead to Part 2 / Chapter 5.

And finally, here's a song concept I've been thinking about, on the topic of music!

And also, excellent work and writing here as always. I'm always so impressed with the clarity of your communication, your synthesis, and how you communicate these important topics — your aesthetics and language, your points and instincts. Thank you for this and all your work.
