* The theory that has upended everything we thought we knew about Climate change and the environmental crisis.
* This book places the current climate crisis within the broader framework of the evolutionary process shaping the relationship between the entity of Life and its incubator — the planet Earth, which is inevitably destined for collapse and decline. It argues that this crisis is deeply rooted in the very intentionality of Life’s evolution, which seeks to ensure its eternal survival and continuity. The fact that the climate crisis has reached such a critical and threatening point is therefore no coincidence. Rather, it appears as a visible sign of a pivotal turning point. It simultaneously exposes the glaring failure of humanity to fulfill its fundamental duty as the guardian of Life’s continuity, and its direct responsibility for Life’s ongoing destruction. Yet it is precisely this realization — of humanity’s destructive role and the urgent need to act — that now serves as the driving force and essential impetus for transforming the reality of this crisis and finding a way to overcome it.
* The emergence of the human being, as presented in this book, represents the culmination of the evolutionary journey of the relationship between the entity of Life and its incubator, the Earth. It marks a decisive turning point: from this moment onward, it is up to Life itself — through the human being — to conceive, create, and implement all that is necessary to ensure the concrete perpetuation of its eternity, whether on Earth or elsewhere, since this planet is inevitably destined to perish. Thus, the existential ecological crisis we are experiencing today only reveals the critical severity of our historical and civilizational trajectory because it underscores the urgent need for a new paradigm — one capable of guaranteeing the fulfillment of Life’s eternal continuity in its absolute sense. However, such fulfillment can only be achieved if this new paradigm is founded on a clear and explicit intention: to ultimately sever the destiny of the entity of Life from that of its doomed incubator, the Earth. And this separation can only succeed — safely, effectively, and at the necessary moment — if it takes the form of a true weaning: a faithful replication of the human process of separation and individuation.
* Thus, if the human being has distinguished himself by his capacity for knowledge and his sense of duty, it is precisely because he was predisposed, from the very beginning, to carry out a successful, safe, and sustainable weaning of Life from the Earth — a planet whose eventual disappearance is inevitable — at the right time and under the right conditions. From this perspective, the phenomenon of weaning takes on an entirely new dimension. In the case of the human being, it becomes governed by knowledge and the awareness of duty. From this evolutionary turning point onward, it is incumbent upon the entity of Life to embrace the logic of this process — a process that can only be achieved through knowledge and a sense of responsibility. The entity of Life is now compelled to learn, design, invent, and create in order to secure the permanence of its eternal existence — on Earth or beyond. This phenomenon of weaning became fully apparent when the entity of Life succeeded in transforming the Earth into a living being — Gaia — vibrant with life. Weaning thus becomes the highest expression reached by the evolutionary development of the relationship between Life and the Earth. This is why the author views the phenomenon of weaning as a key interpretive lens for deeply understanding climate change. He defines it as a biological, ecological, and existential process — central to the evolutionary dynamic between the entity of Life (understood as an intentional entity, driven by a powerful will for eternal continuity) and Gaia, the living Earth, its incubator fated to collapse and death
* This is why the phenomenon of weaning, in the case of the human being, fundamentally differs from what it is in other living beings. It is no longer experienced solely as an instinctive process, but rather as one lived with full awareness — guided by a free and lucid will. It is a fully conscious and voluntary act, dictated above all — and essentially — by a sense of duty. Weaning thus becomes a freely assumed act, which explains why it occupies a significant part of human life. It is no longer confined to a single brief stage, but unfolds over two distinct phases: the first is the natural weaning of early childhood; the second — more decisive — is the adolescent weaning, which allows the individual to transition from the stage of childhood to that of a fully mature adult among adults, capable of bearing full responsibility for their own existence.
* All of this ultimately shows that the phenomenon of weaning in the human being is, in every sense of the word, an ecological phenomenon. It is the very process through which adaptation, integration, and harmony with the living biological environment — the planet Earth as a living being — are achieved. This phenomenon reflects the true place of the human being within the relationship between Life and the Earth: it represents the highest point reached by the evolutionary logic of that relationship. Human weaning thus emerges as a practical model to be adopted in shaping our relationship with the environment — and with every “other” — whether in responding to the current climate crisis, developing sustainable models of growth, or even designing artificial intelligence algorithms.
