Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, Tunisia, and Zimbabwe, are among those applying to join BRICS. These countries are setting their face against western democracies and their death march into &#8220;climate change&#8221; degrowth and population reduction. They may save us yet.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>That currency will be pegged to the natural resources possessed by each country. This critical shift will mean that financialization of each country\u2019s resources will be unavailable to the world\u2019s oligarchs, who today are acquiring land as fast as they can to set aside as carbon credits on the massive new taxes deemed necessary. The BRICS do not care about &#8220;climate change&#8221; or species extinction (which they know are based on a falsification of science), they care about growth and using their resources to give their people a better life. They do not want the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/events\/annual-meeting-of-the-new-champions-2023\" rel=\"\">World Economic Forum<\/a> telling them what to do. When it comes to the Ukraine conflict, they are on Russia\u2019s side.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The article includes the following quote:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The following is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resilience.org\/stories\/2023-06-07\/the-future-is-degrowth-and-degrowth-strategy-a-review-in-dialogue\/\" rel=\"\">quote from DeGrowth.org<\/a>.

Evidently, <em>smashing<\/em> can enable the strategic logic of <em>building alternatives<\/em>.
