Icarus Complex is printed as a biannual magazine. What are the challenges and what are the potential weapons of action from an economic, political, legal and grassroots perspective? We take an in-depth look at the issues surrounding climate change. The aim of the magazine is to dissect humanity’s icarus complex, this idea that we have jumped off a cliff, mid-flight and confident in our own momentum, but in denial about the impending crash if we do not change course. 

We believe that climate change should be recognised as the most essential threat facing humanity today, yet we do not want that recognition to be coupled with a sense of fatalism. We refuse to be complacent. On the contrary, we want to look at the issues and solutions around climate change in a holistic way, and inspire individuals and institutions to not only take, but also demand both institutional and governmental action.

We want to ask the right questions, so that we can help point to the right answers.

We believe that viable solutions can only be found in a society that sets itself above the toxic rhetoric of left versus right, us versus them, science versus religion, social responsibility versus business viability. We want to help unify all the disparate voices that are fighting to implement change.
