About this deal

It was so surface level like all we had to do was sort out the fuel source and everything would be ok. It didn’t make any sense.

We’re going to have to remember there are better ways and there are people still here who can help us. We’re going to have to learn to listen to them and approach this with a lot more humility. It’s a measure of how much perceptions have changed in the past thirty-five years that “The Transsexual Empire” received a respectful, even admiring hearing in the mainstream media, unlike “Gender Hurts,” which has been largely ignored there. Reviewing “The Transsexual Empire” in the Times, the psychiatrist Thomas Szasz called it “flawless.” Raymond, he wrote, “has rightly seized on transsexualism as an emblem of modern society’s unremitting—though increasingly concealed—antifeminism.” We’ve been doing the same thing for 8000 years and it’s not going to end any differently.

Do you see the role of feminism in your vision of the environmental movement?

L – For solar panels and wind turbines, they will say – other things are more destructive as if that’s somehow ok that we would add an additional destructive industry. Of course we should be working to reduce all things that are causing harm. Not, we’re causing harm already to let’s destroy everything. It makes no sense as an argument. The question about “What grows where you live?” is important because to answer it you have to know the place that you live. You also have to know what activities and what actors are destroying it. I would hope that from there, people would be moved to defend their homes.

The thing we do know about how to reduce the population. The number 1 thing that works around the world is teaching a girl to read, that means that when women and girls have that much power over their lives and their futures, they choose to have fewer children. Half the children born each year are either unplanned or unwanted. All we have to do is give complete reproductive power to women and this problem will solve itself in time. The second reason is that I didn’t want a whole new group of idealistic young people to destroy their health. A vegetarian diet — and especially a vegan diet — does not provide for the long-term maintenance and repair of the human body. So vegetarians are on drawdown of their biological reserves. It means we have de-industrialise, let the Earth repair and the best way to do that is to stop the destruction. Mansbridge, Jane, and Aldon Morris, eds. 2001. Oppositional Consciousness: The Subject Roots of Social Protest. Chicago: University of Chicago Press. J – I grew up with a love of the natural world. I would go camping and go out in nature and see all the creatures we share the planet with. At the same time for much of my life I was unaware of the destruction that was happening. When I was 16 I watched a documentary called Revolution and learned for the first time that we’re in a mass extinction and the amount of life that is being lost and the devastation that is taking place because of this insane culture. That completely changed my life. I came out of the theatre and decided this is what I have to dedicate my life to. I’m going to work on this and do something about it. I started making documentaries about a week after that.
