Il nous arrive d’entendre cette formule : nos politiques ne sont pas à la hauteur. C’est évident dans le cas de l’écologie, puisque rien ou si peu n’est fait par nos gouvernements pour enrayer la machine infernale. Mais leur responsabilité, tout comme celle des multinationales et du fameux 1 %, n’est (presque) plus à prouver. Il existe pourtant d’autres causes, plus discrètes, qui conduisent l’écologie politique à l’échec : celles qui s’enracinent dans son propre camp. Structurellement, l’écologie, fruit de l’environnementalisme, s’est constituée comme une cause des élites. Dès les années 1970, ses militants, les ONG et certains politiques ont fait d’elle un objet de lutte pour privilégiés, morcelable, négociable et, surtout, profitable. Et, ce faisant, ils et elles ont réduit la lutte à une mise en scène, une morale abstraite, éloignée des citoyens et des citoyennes. À l’heure où les extrêmes droites s’organisent partout pour imposer leurs mots d’ordre identitaires et sécuritaires dans l’agenda politique — au détriment des mesures d’intérêt général pour le climat et la biodiversité — et alors que le discours anti-écologiste (*green backlash*) est porté très haut dans l’espace public, il est temps de contre-attaquer. Loin de se limiter à un constat d’échec ou à une distribution de bons et mauvais points sur l’action du mouvement écologiste depuis 50 ans, Clément Sénéchal proposera des pistes de solution pour sortir de cette impasse. Solutions qui devront nécessairement passer par une repolitisation du discours écologique, intégrant la question du traitement des inégalités aussi bien dans les pays industrialisés que dans ceux du Sud global.  Clément Sénéchal est un intellectuel et militant français engagé dans les domaines de l’écologie politique et de la critique sociale. Diplômé en sociologie et en philosophie politique, il a occupé le poste de porte-parole climat au sein d’une grande ONG environnementale pendant plusieurs années. Il est également auteur et chroniqueur, contribuant régulièrement à des publications telles que Reporterre et Frustration Magazine.​ En 2024, il a publié l’essai *Pourquoi l’écologie perd toujours* aux éditions du Seuil (aujourd’hui disponible en poche ), dans lequel il analyse les raisons structurelles de l’échec des stratégies écologistes dominantes. Dans cet ouvrage, aujourd’hui disponible en poche, il critique notamment la proximité entre certaines ONG environnementales et les grandes entreprises, qu’il considère comme un facteur de dilution des luttes écologistes.​ Clément Sénéchal est également actif sur les réseaux sociaux, où il partage ses réflexions sur l’écologie, la politique et les mouvements sociaux. Son parcours illustre un engagement intellectuel et militant en faveur d’une transformation radicale des structures sociales pour répondre aux défis environnementaux contemporains. **Entrée libre** :Nous offrons s un repas (sandwich) et les boissons. **Il est par contre nécessaire de s’inscrire avant le lundi 23 mars** en envoyant un mail à lunchtalk@astm.lu en précisant si vous souhaitez un sandwich végétarien ou traditionnel.

We begin with a topic that touches everyone who arrives in this country: **Education, Languages and Integration in Luxembourg** For many newcomers, building a life here means learning how the system works and especially how languages shape everyday experience. · Which language should you focus on? · How does the education system function? · And how do these elements influence your integration journey?

*Apologies in advance for the excessive use of the word “rave” in this event.* Join us — with intensity and grace — for a hybrid evening that begins with reflection and ends in bass. From a Saturday night discussion about the rave scene to an actual one in the south of Luxembourg. You’re welcome to attend either one or both: **20:00 – 22:00 \| Book Discussion @ Creapelle** “We were one nation united by the groove.” In 1989, one rave changed Kirk Field’s life. It led him to become a “rave reporter” and witness the UK’s Summer of Love. We’ll dive into his book *Rave New World: Confessions of a Rave Reporter*, though you don’t need to have read the book... curiosity is enough 😎 You can also watch the documentary beforehand [HERE](https://youtu.be/A-XrlMpwEuM) **23:00 \| Do You Rave? @ Rockhal Club** Luxembourg may not be Berlin. But every now and then, she hosts amazing raves and this is one of them! Join me and Laureena — two passionate ravers — as we move from conversation to groove in *Luxembourg’s biggest hard techno rave!* Event info & tickets [HERE](https://rockhal.lu/shows/do-you-rave-march/) Oh! and a gently reminder of the rave essentials: - Black clothes - Black shades - Gum - Earplugs - An open mind - Good sleep (the real super drug😉)

Led by Brian Drafton-Griffin, this engaging workshop offers practical tools and meaningful insights to help you navigate conflict with greater awareness, compassion, and confidence. Through guided discussion and reflection, you’ll learn how to shift from reaction to response and transform challenges into opportunities for growth and connection.

The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.

Communication is everything in life! You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024

So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!

We are excited to host Guided Meditations on Sundays at 6 pm in our Ashram/Gallery/Home! !! !! Everyone wants to know what kind of God we worship and what kind of meditation we do.

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
