the “we” assumed by the Anthropocene is white the marked racialized body is a nonwhite other that has been expelled. The liberal vision of race seeks the normalization of “human” through the values attached to whiteness. efforts to eliminate the native take the form of expulsion or incorporation The Anthropocene politicizes geology in a time of climate denial by depoliticizing the response options open to humanity and making them a matter of management: what are the scientific and managerial steps needed to achieve 350 parts of carbon per million in the atmosphere? The mistake is to assume the Anthropocene was solely caused by material structures and not by structures of thought utilitarian thoughtlessness abandons politics for technical solutions the Anthropocene is a retroactive production of meaning that tells a story about the planet and its ecology, but also about the world that has made that ecology. in describing the antecedents of the Anthropocene point to the Industrial Revolution they focus on the transition to fossil fuels as a form of energy use. this transition becomes the moment of the Anthropocene, and the “complex and interacting” features of a changing political, economic, and social system are left behind The Anthropocene becomes an epoch started by coal and oil, and not by capitalism, colonialism, or even liberalism. the focus on ecological collapse tempts us to concentrate only on the Anthropocene, on the relationship between the anthropos and its footprint on the earth.

Question: Clean energy policy requires systemic change

The term ‘Clean Energy Policy’ requires broad systemic change---that’s key to limits & ground.

Jonas Meckling and Nicholas Goedeking 2023, Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management, University of California, Berkeley; Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management, University of California, Berkeley, “Coalition cascades: The politics of tipping points in clean energy transitions”, July 20, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/psj.12507, accessed 9/29/24, HMc

clean energy policy plays out across several subsystems, including electricity, transport, and housing in shifting interconnected policy subsystems into a new equilibrium requires policy change across subsystems . subsystem interdependencies exist across an array of policy issues gas policy has spillover effects for electricity changes in monetary policy spill over into housing A coordination problem exists if policy change in subsystem A is stymied by a lack of policy change in subsystem B. positive trans-subsystem policy change relates to other types of policy change, yet is distinct from them minor change relates to a change in a subcomponent of the policy subsystem, whereas major change refers to subsystem-wide change Both minor and major policy changes can contribute to policy change but are distinct from policy change that results in systemwide tipping points.
