The climate crisis is a non-tangible phenomena, which also seems in the future and far away for a person in Europe. This makes it harder to act on it -- even if somebody wants to. [My perspective: its an hyperobject.]

adjacency - hyperobject -- language of separation - There is another related reason that many people do not value climate crisis - these concepts are hyperobjects - objects so large that they are beyond the scope of evolutionarily evolved salience - language evolved within humans to deal with environmental events that were salient to our immediate survival - the climate crisis is steeped in complex science and applies to the entire planet, something that humans were never evolved to cognitively apprehend

Comment - Both Jordan Hall and I are familiar with the concept of hyperobject but in this part of the conversation, Jordan introduced the idea to Micheal for the first time - This illustrates to me that truism that our perspectival knowledge of reality is unique - Our individual meaningverses and lebenswelt are uniquely located and situated in life - And whenever a multi meaningverse events, the ensuing conversation is collectively - consciousness expanding - expanding the - semantic fingerprint and - symmathesetic fingerprint - of all conversants

• Timothy Morton defined a "hyperobject" as a conception of an in object that is so temporally and spatially large that it is beyond ordinary human scale.

Such an effort will require a supporting worldwide digital ecosystem. In the recent past, major evolutionary transitions (MET) (Robin et al, 2021) of our species have been triggered by radical new information systems such as spoken language, and then inscribed language. Something akin to a Major Competitive Transitions (MCT) may be required to accompany a radical transition to a good anthropocene.

If large data is ingested into a public Indyweb, because Indyweb is naturally a graph database, a salience landscape can be constructed of the hyperthreat and data visualized in its multiple dimensions and scales.

Metaphorically, it can manifest as a hydra with multiple tentacles reach out to multiple scales and dimensions. VR and AR technology can be used to expose the hyperobject and its progression.

The proper hyperthreat is not climate change alone, although that is the most time sensitive dimension of it, but rather the totality of all blowbacks of human progress...the aggregate of all progress traps that have been allowed to grow, through a myopic prioritization of profit over global wellbeing due to the invisibility of the hyperobject, from molehills into mountains.
