Facing the Future ECO-Social Strategy without Neoliberalism Growth Economics with Stuart Scott
Channel: Inside Ideas
Date: 2021-01-13

Stuart Scott is my guest on Episode 60 of Inside Ideas with Marc Buckley.

Stuart refers to himself as an eco-social strategist.  After working a conventional career with assignments for IBM, Merrill Lynch, and several universities, in 2008 he gave up working for money and since has devoted himself through a series of volunteer staffed initiatives, to awakening humanity to the ecological and climate catastrophes that our growth economic system is creating. His latest effort is an initiative called Facing Future TV.

Principally known for his visibility at UN-sponsored climate negotiations, or COPS and extensive video interviews, his thesis is that modern economies, their unrelenting emphasis on growth, privately owned central banks exponentially expanding the money supply, are akin to cancer with humanity as its host, that will inevitably destroy the host. In 2018, Stuart brought Greta Thunberg and her father, Svante Thunberg, to COP-24 in Poland, from which Greta’s unwaveringly clear message to world leaders was amplified and her position cemented as the preeminent spokesperson for youth and future generations, thus increasing her profile, worldwide, leading to his nomination of Greta for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Stuart succeeded in convincing famed climate scientist James Hansen, former Director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Science, to attend the climate talks that he had previously shunned as an ineffective sham, first to COP-21 in Paris (2015), again to COP-23 in Bonn, Germany (2017), and also to COP-25 in Madrid, Spain (2019).
