The author advocates for a transition from 'environmental protection' to 'ecologism,' which addresses the root causes of ecological destruction rather than just symptoms. The text proposes a global green vision characterized by a 'just transition' to post-growth economics, the localization of supply chains to reduce dependence on globalized capitalist models, and the democratization of global governance. It emphasizes a shift in security paradigms from state militarism to human security, focusing on poverty, health, and environmental degradation. The document calls for the reallocation of global military spending—approximately 1.7 trillion dollars annually—toward sustainable development and the adoption of a 'fossil fuel non-proliferation treaty' to complement the Paris Agreement.

• Current international relations are criticized for treating capitalism and militarism as givens, relying on illusions of stability through state militarism while ignoring the ecological foundations of life.
• The pandemic highlighted the fragility of 'just-in-time' (JIT) global supply chains, supporting a shift toward localization for food and essential medicines to increase autonomy and reduce environmental impact, specifically for European countries reducing dependence on India and China.
• The document proposes a fundamental shift in the definition of security, moving away from state-centric views of terrorism and war toward a focus on poverty, health, violence, and environmental destruction.
• The author calls for the reallocation of the approximately 1.7 trillion dollars spent annually on global arms procurement and suggests a 'fossil fuel non-proliferation treaty' to keep most fossil fuels in the ground, noting that the Paris Agreement does not mention fossil fuels.
