We climate change is happening. As we are need to keep doing our best by the next generation, we have to care choosing our actions carefully. Since even if other people won’t. We decided we live in a country where our voice to make a step into the right direction matters, we have the power to pursue by compensating for our World change. So let’s start making a change Challenge India trip. now before it Is too late.

It includes a five- day trek and a week of charity work in a local community. As flying across the globe produces 2.5 tonnes of CO2 per person, we decided to compensate our CO2 emissions through the organisation Myclimate. Myclimate is a non-profit organization that aims at lowering CO2 emissions worldwide. They support projects that use renewable energy and cut methane emissions, as well as forest initiatives that reduce the pressure on forests and biodiversity «hot spots». Climate protection projects result in lower CO2 emissions whilst contributing significantly to sustainable development in the region. 3 Hullarious Winter 2019/2020 By Gina Landtwing Environmental Series 2; EC3 Mindful Consumption and the Danger of Fast Fashion “The clothing industry is the second largest polluter in the world ... second only to oil,"…“It's a really nasty business ... it's a mess." Those were the words of Eileen Fisher back in early 2015. What might seem like a hyperbolic statement, describes the cruel industry of manufacturing clothes quite accurately, however. And she should know; Fisher herself is a clothing industry magnate. Not only is the fashion carbon footprint crippling; aside from obvious pollutants such as pesticides used in cotton agriculture, toxic dyes used in manufacturing and the insurmountable waste discarded clothes create- the excessive amount of natural resources used in extraction, farming, harvesting, processing, manufacturing, and shipping all add up to the harmful consequences of the typical garment you purchased last week. But also, the detrimental repercussions of fast fashion have to be considered here. Fast fashion is a term defined by investopedia as ‘clothing designs that move quickly from the catwalk to stores to meet new trends. The collections are based on designs presented at Fashion Week events and allows mainstream consumers to purchase trendy clothing at a cheap price’. It is cheap, trendy clothing that quickly goes out of style. Most fashion retailers introduce new fashion items multiple times in a week in order to stay on trend. This established a disposable relation to our clothes; we don’t really value our clothing anymore as we are constantly bombarded with new, enchanting garments that allure us to think we would be better off with them. Truth told, and thanks to Mr. Tuohy who gave the concept already known to me a name, I’ve found economic data that refutes this concept. The Law of Diminishing Utility states that as you as consumer purchase yet another ruffled silken velvet laced dress, your satisfaction or extra happiness gained from your purchase, even if you got it for a sweet deal of 10 CHF, declines. On top of all the negatives highlighted above, is the fact that due to this tremendous consumer craze, previous legitimate brands that produced their clothing domestically now too adapt to the fast-paced production level. Domestic production not only bears lower transport emission advantages and circular economy benefits, but also the labour used to produce the garment is usually treated far more ethically and the quality of the product is thus more precious than in a busy factory mass-production. This is the reason why almost every tag now carries the ‘made in China’ inscription, contrary to previous ‘made in Italy’ signs, for example. The acceleration with which the brands want to see their output being generated links to the problematic situation of sweatshops and child labour as a result. 4 Hullarious Winter 2019/2020 A sweatshop is a factory or workshop, especially in the clothing industry, where manual labour is employed at very low wages for long hours and poor conditions. In order to maximise innovation and output the workers lose out, which more often than not meet the standard of human exploitation. With regard to child labour, according to the World Health Organisation approximately 90% of children working in tanneries of Bangladesh die before they reach the age of 50. The infants, often not older than nine years, are exposed to hazardous chemicals daily in order to produce leather which is in demand in Europe and the US. As a consequence, the workers suffer chronic skin and lung diseases. And what is most tragic about the already sad truth; most of the labour does not have access to a hospital- they live in the same slums where they work and hospitals are not part of the infrastructure. In light of the bitter facts above, the second part of this article is aimed at providing you with alternatives to the insurmountable peril of fast fashion. There are many ways how you are able to design your wardrobe more sustainably which means you may choose the option that fits your lifestyle- as not everyone is made for a minimalistic capsule wardrobe. 1. Get Thrifty By that I don’t mean to watch your money in a persnickity manner and stop purchasing anything until you must buy a new item - which do not get me wrong is in fact the most sustainable way to consume- but rather get thriftING. By opting to wear clothes that already have been created and worn on this planet, you not only save the garment out of the waste stream, but also show those ignorant multinational corporations, such as H&M, explain that you do not demand their cheap, unethical stuff. There are many forms how you can thrift; at flea markets, thrift stores or even hand- me- downs are a fun way to give existing clothing a new purpose. The bonus being that you don’t have to adapt to commercial trends which makes you stand out of the crowd AND gives you that wonderful touch of self- fulfilment. If you struggle to find inspiration apps such as Depop, Etsy or Bunz are a fun way to find clothing online. My number one recommendation if you not yet have fallen in love with thrift-shop shopping; the amazing Greek youtuber Kristen Leo- she takes second hand fashion to a whole new level- which will leave you in awe of creating dashing re-worn outfit styles. 2. Sustainable Brands Truth told, thrifting is not for everybody. You may feel weird wearing other people’s clothes and fear germs polluting your body. Which, in fact, is ironic as producing a new piece of clothing will involve so many chemicals and pesticides that the garment will be COVERED in tiny microorganisms we more often than not can’t even pronounce the name of correctly. However, there are an increasing number of Eco- brands cropping up not only in the world but also in Zurich alone. Just wander outside and there is a store right next to school at Falkenstrasse… (on the way to our Seehofstrasse building). These brands, depending on their values and standards, pledge to produce their products more sustainably by ensuring fair living wages, using only vegan materials and or upcycle plastic bottles for fabric production. My absolute fave here being the Canadian brand MAT and NAT that offer the most beautiful accumulation of purses, bags, shoes etc. made from vegan leather. The vegan leather used, being generated from recycled plastic bottles. 5 Hullarious Winter 2019/2020 3. Social Media The last suggestion does not perse take reference to an alternative how to buy more consciously, but rather focuses on awesome individuals that daily try to help Mamma Earth and inspire third parties in the process. The youtubers listed below have helped me drastically with questions how to live more sustainably and I think their words and actions can help to spread some awareness if you are interested into adapting a more ethical lifestyle.

    Yasha Gall, Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975

    Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975 Yasha Gall Published by Nauka, St. Petersburg, Russia, 2004 Reproduced as an e-book with kind permission of Nauka Science editor: Academician AL Takhtajan Preface by the Science Editor The 20th century was the epoch of discovery in evolutionary biology, marked by many fundamental investigations. Of special significance were the works of AN Severtsov, SS Chetverikov, S Wright, JBS Haldane, G De Beer JS Huxley and R Goldschmidt. Among the general works on evolutionary theory, the one of greatest breadth was Julian Huxley’s book Evolution: The Modern Synthesis (1942). Huxley was one of the first to analyze the mechanisms of macro-evolutionary processes and discuss the evolutionary role of neoteny in terms of developmental genetics (the speed of gene action). Neoteny—the most important mechanism of heritable variation of ontogenesis—has great macro-evolutionary consequences. A Russian translation of Huxley’s book on evolution was prepared for publication by Professor VV Alpatov. The manuscript of the translation had already been sent to production when the August session of the VASKNIL in 1948 burst forth—a destructive moment in the history of biology in our country. The publication was halted, and the manuscript disappeared. I remember well a meeting with Huxley in 1945 in Moscow and Leningrad during the celebratory jubilee at the Academy of Sciences. He was deeply disturbed by the “blossoming” of Lysenkoist obscurantism in biology. It is also important to note that in the 1950s Huxley developed original concepts for controlling the birth rate of the Earth’s population. He openly declared the necessity of forming an international institute at the United Nations, since the global ecosystem already could not sustain the pressure of human “activity” and, together with humanity, might itself die.

    3/4/2021 Aldous Huxley - Wikipedia Aldous Huxley Aldous Leonard Huxley (26 July 1894 – 22 November 1963) was an English writer and Aldous Huxley philosopher.[1][2][3][4] He wrote nearly fifty books[5][6]—both novels and non-fiction works—as well as wide-ranging essays, narratives, and poems. Born into the prominent Huxley family, he graduated from Balliol College, Oxford with an undergraduate degree in English literature. Early in his career, he published short stories and poetry and edited the literary magazine Oxford Poetry, before going on to publish travel writing, satire, and screenplays. He spent the latter part of his life in the United States, living in Los Angeles from 1937 until his death.[7] By the end of his life, Huxley was widely acknowledged as one of the foremost intellectuals of his time.[8] He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature seven times[9] and was elected Companion of Literature by the Royal Society of Literature in 1962.[10] Huxley was a pacifist. He grew interested in philosophical mysticism[11][12] and universalism,[13] addressing these subjects with works such as The Perennial Philosophy (1945)—which illustrates commonalities between Western and Eastern mysticism—and The Doors of Perception (1954)— which interprets his own psychedelic experience with mescaline. In his most famous novel Brave New World (1932) and his final novel Island (1962), he presented his vision of dystopia and utopia, respectively.

Grandson of Thomas Henry Huxley, son of Julia Arnold, and older brother of Aldous Huxley, Sir Julian began his career in 1910 as a teacher and practicing biologist, became director •of the London Zoo, acted as first director-general of Unesco, and until his death in 1975 was a prolific author and widely-travelled speaker. Huxley's scientific achievements included studies of taxonomy and relative growth, pioneering work in ethology, and important writing in the early twentieth-century synthesis of Mendelian genetics and Darwinian theory. His belief that evolution was not only biological but social and cultural as well led to interests in eugenics, population control, conservation, and humanist movements. The collection documents Huxley's role as a synthesizer and educator who influenced thinking in many areas.

  • 1 David Izzo 1. Life, Art, Thought There Is Not a Writer Who Came After

    David Izzo 1. Life, Art, Thought There is not a writer who came after Aldous Huxley that does not owe to him directly or indirectly the new tangent in the history of the novel that his work impelled. 1928’s Point Counter Point was the surging impetus for this influence. In 1928 his fourth novel made Huxley an international sensation, even if today it is 1932’s Brave New World for which he is chiefly remembered; yet, there was so much more than just Brave New World, and Point Counter Point. Today, there is not a person who learned about Eastern philosophy in the 1960s that is not directly or indirectly indebted to Huxley the philosopher. Anyone who admires the philosophy of Horkheimer and Adorno, particularly their essay, “The Culture Industry,” is actually influenced by Huxley, as these two German refugees from Hitler have said that their ideas came from Huxley. There is an academic Aldous Huxley Society with a home base in Muenster, Germany that does appreciate his impact on our world and spreads the gospel of Huxley through a book length Huxley Annual and a conference every year so that he will not be forgotten. His friend and fellow philosopher, Gerald Heard, called Huxley, “The Poignant Prophet” (101), and he was certainly a godfather of the New Age. With all of his accomplishments, perhaps the most enduring was how endearing he was to those who knew him and adored his wit, his kindness, and, finally, his profound humanity. Aldous Leonard Huxley was born on 26 July 1894 to Leonard Huxley and Julia Francis Arnold Huxley.

  • A Biographical Study of Thomas Arnold the Younger

    A BIOGRAPHICAL STUDY OF THOMAS ARNOLD THE YOUNGER. J.E^AJtON YTÏ232YIS1U Y flA flS U . j : J A thesis presented for the degree of Ph.D in the School of English, University of Leeds, April 1975. A SHORT ABSTRACT Thomas Arnold was Dr.Arnold's second and favourite son. Born in Laleham, Middlesex, in 1823, he spent all his formative years under his father's influence except for one year he and Matthew spent at Winchester before being brought back to Rugby. Dr.Arnold died in 1842 and in that year Thomas began his undergraduate life in Tractarian Oxford as a scholar at University College. He soon developed a social conscience and suffered a collapse of faith, so that despite taking a First he rejected the chance of a Fellowship and in a mood of idealism emigrated to New Zealand in 1847. Two years as a colonial settler were enough to temper his idealism and in 1850 he gladly accepted the post of Inspector of Schools in Tasmania, offered by the Governor Sir William Denison. Within months he had married Julia Sorell, had begun to organise the re-structuring of the island's school system, and regain his Rugby faiths. By 1855 he had decided to become a Roman Catholic and this almost destroyed his marriage since his wife was, and remained, fiercely opposed to Catholicism. He was received in 1856; his marriage survived but he lost his post as Inspector of Schools. Through contact with J.H.Newman he was appointed Professor of English Literature in the Catholic University in Dublin in 1856, but after six years in the strife-torn University he joined Newman in the Oratory School in Birmingham.
  • Brave New World Topics of Discussion

    Brave New World Topics of Discussion

    Brave New World Topics of Discussion: Where does the title come from? It is a quote from William Shakespeare’s The Tempest, which states, “O brave new world/ That has such people in’t” (V.I). Notice how John uses it when he first goes to London considering it a blessing, kind of like going to a Utopia. However, shortly after being in London, he uses the same quote again, but in an ironic mood trying to portray the perversity of “the Other place.” In his mind, this place with all its technology is not “expensive enough” because it doesn’t provide books and other forms of entertainment he’s used to. This is important for Huxley to juxtapose what the reader has heard because it suddenly changes this infantile place into a more dystopian light. The question then becomes: does Huxley believe our society should be a drug-infested utopia where the infantile ethos thrives, or should it have an adult ethos that places the individual and reality as the most important? What is the translation of the Nicholas Berdiaeff quote after the title page? Utopias appear to be much easier to realize than one formerly believed. We currently face a question that would otherwise fill us with anguish: How to avoid their becoming definitively real? This quote reveals a little the importance of Huxley’s time. After World War I, politicians of his time, namely Chamberlain thought post World War I was a time of utopic peace. England and France were beginning to disarm themselves, which led directly into the hands of World War II where NAZI’s took advantage of a weakened Europe.

  • Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Chapter 1 Aldous Huxley (1894–1963) Aldous Leonard Huxley was born on July 26, 1894, in Godalming, Surrey. He came from a distinguished intellectual lineage: his grandfather was T.H. Huxley, who was nicknamed “Darwin’s bulldog” for his advocacy of evolution- ary theory; and his great-uncle was the poet and critic Matthew Arnold. His childhood was marked by three traumatic episodes: in 1908, his mother Julia died of cancer; three years later, at the age of sixteen, he contracted an eye infection (keratitis punctata) that permanently impaired his eyesight; and in 1914, his brother Trevenen committed suicide.1 The unforgiving satire and cyni- cal assessments of human nature that mark Huxley’s early work can be inter- preted as a response to these tragedies.2 After attending Eton, Huxley read English at Balliol College, Oxford (1913– 1916). He had originally intended to study biology like his brother Julian (1887–1975), but his damaged eyesight rendered lab work impossible.3 At the outbreak of World War i, he initially shared the patriotic enthusiasm of his peers, but by March 1916 he was expressing his disgust with the war in a letter to Julian, and maintaining that in retrospect he’d have been a “conscientious objector, or nearly so”.4 But he never had to take this stance officially as he was rejected for military service as a result of his poor eyesight.5 His sympathy for conscientious objectors may have been encouraged by his friendship with Lady Ottoline Morrell, who invited Huxley to her home, Garsington Manor, on November 28, 1915,6 and thereafter he became a frequent guest, and socialised 1 See Nicholas Murray, Aldous Huxley: An English Intellectual (London: Abacus, 2003), 20, 29–30, 37–38.
