💸 Soaring bills for us, but huge payouts to shareholders. 💩 Sewage in our waterways, but bailouts for water companies. 🛤️ Delayed trains, but ticket hikes every year. What if it didn’t have to be like this? 🎧 Listen now to learn more. neweconomics.org/2025/10/radi... w/@abundance-org.bsky.social

If you’re interested in transition design and transition studies, or in more general issues around sustainability, regeneration, and social justice, I highly recommend this book. As the title suggests, it’s a critical engagement with discourses around “abundance”, popular in the US right now. But…

Why Liberal Abundance is Bullsh*t

Capitalism has created a world of bullsh*t abundance and artificial scarcity, where we have too much of what we don’t need and too little of what we do. The system’s pursuit of profits has put us on…

Here @adamvaughan.bsky.social shows why we need social control of water. Out yesterday, our report makes the case for treating water as a shared resource, not a corporate asset. It asks "should we prioritise using water to grow food or to cool data centres?" 🔗 www.in-abundance.org/latest/beyon...

Adam Vaughan@adamvaughan.bsky.social · last yr.

How much water do Britain's data centres use? Bafflingly, there is no official figure. So here's my best estimate after weeks of reporting: circa 10 billion litres of water a year. And that's before any big UK AI boom. Story in @thetimes.com 👇 www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

Compass@compassoffice.bsky.social · last yr.

3/3 That's why, more than nationalisation, we need democratic ownership and control of our water. Abundance’s new paper says it’s not just about who owns things. It’s about who controls them - and how to make sure that’s us, the public.

Bert Russell@bertrussell.bsky.social · last yr.

New report from myself and @kmilb.bsky.social for @abundance-org.bsky.social on the need for social control of water. A contribution thinking about the future of Thames Water, and what we shoulf be organising for.

Abundance@abundance-org.bsky.social · last yr.

Thames Water might soon be brought into a Special Administration Regime, but public ownership alone won’t fix a system rigged for private profit. Without real social control, we risk repeating the same mistakes.

Should we prioritise ensuring water is used to irrigate fields for crops ...or for cooling data centres?
Keir Milburn@kmilb.bsky.social · last yr.

A report out today from @bertrussell.bsky.social and I for @abundance-org.bsky.social advocating for social control of the failed privatised water companies via democratic governance. We look at, and learn the lessons from, four different attempts to reorganise water services along these lines.
