Who is a Planetist?

In my last blog, I described Planetism as an emerging 21st-century paradigm that is now shaping the culture and economy of our emerging 21st-century global village. To me, a paradigm is a collection of values that together can be described as a single holistic concept and that can be transmitted between people as this single holistic concept. I describe the narrative of the birth and emergence of Planetism in Chapter I of my book, and how this emergence is shaping global politics in Chapter 2! Are you a Planetist, perhaps even without recognising this fact? And are your friends and family also Planetists? If you live in the UK and you support Brexit you will not be a Planetist! You will be a Nationalist! If you are a Remainer you most likely will be a Planetist . If you live in the USA and you support Trump you will be a Nationalist who still wants to Make America Great Again. If you are anti-Trump you will more likely be a Planetist If you think that Putin who, unfortunately for most of us, is causing such mayhem in a century where we regard him as a 21st-century misfit, you are likely to be a Planetist. Are the organisations and groups you belong to or support also Planetist as well? If these organisations are global civil society NGOs like Greenpeace, Amnesty International, or Transparency International, you are certainly a Planetist.Planetism is made up of nine values which are described in detail in Chapter I of The Future Knowledge Compendium. Check them out! If you identify as Planetist this will affect how you will behave and how you will vote, among the things. Also know that because you embed the nine values of Planetism you are already a highly 21st century-fit person who will more likely, than not, thrive in emerging 21st Century society! . And if a Planetist, I know that you already will be concerned about, and will want to contribute to, building a climate-safe, pandemic-safe, evermore liveable planet, for humanity and all life, in the 21st century.
