Natural and humanitarian disasters and wars promptly turn into global #permacrisis and #omnicrisis. To show how crucial societal mindsets are for global development, we have been promoting #futuring and #scenarios. Our latest work on socio-economic pathways in Global South here👇
You asked and we are delivering! #Mindworks is excited to share with you this scenario-based invitation to closely consider the development of public #opinions and mindsets in countries whose economies are under severe pressure due to multiple #crises.

Greenpeace's @mindworkslab does needed work on the human and social psychology behind changing public mindsets, which is the goal of many campaigning #NGOs. This quote could just as much apply to the US public context on many issues
Divisive "anti" and fear-driven narratives establish easier than, #solidarity, collective #action & support for complex, inconvenient solutions. Especially, if they are "helped" by #misinformation campaigns and populistic fear-mongering. The energy debate is no different. (4/n)

Why do "anti" and "fear" narratives establish easier than solidarity and connection? Human nature? The infrastructure behind them? Lack of empowering alternatives? Misinfo fertilization? Other?
The full thread here is good at putting this into context of European energy future.

Climate Twitter ❓
What impacts/risks of climate breakdown can everyone (incl. in less impacted countries/communities) relate to in an emotional way (not just in a rational or moral way)? Something they personally care about / that has a relevance in *their* lives? Suggestions?
