Will be part of a discussion panel on global crises and doom scenarios at Tec Art, Rotterdam, today (Saturday), 20.30
"Society has a curious tendency to fixate on annoying daily struggles, while the dread of larger, more urgent crises fades into the background noise of our lives. How else can we explain why, even in the face of extreme crises, nothing seems to actually change? Is it because Doomsday simply isn’t as bad as Monday?"
with Süeda Isik, Florian Cramer, Sophia Bulgakova, Ronald Hünneman, Cecile van Bruggen (moderator), at Katoenhuis Rotterdam, Keilestraat 9c, 3029 BP Rotterdam, 20.30-21.45, 29th March 2025

Two fresh news times about the world going to sh*t:

Quarantimes 124: Kollaps
Holy Roman #Empire oder so: #Kollaps und #Collapsology sind in aller Munde. Doch wer sieht was zusammenbrechen und zieht daraus welche Schlüsse? Es gibt große Unterschiede zwischen rechten Preppern und emanzipatorisch-solidarischen Strategien. Für Alfredo, der mich eine andere Art der Freude gelehrt hat.nachhören hier:

“Facing extinction” read by the author, Catherine Ingram. This used to be available as a paper to read, but she withdrew that option so she can make updates more easily. A 90-minute listen. #collapsology #SixthExtinction #ClimateCrisis

"The Limits to Growth (1973) standard run, still the most accurate prediction of the future."
"Despite an abundance of handwaving on the part of the prophets of perpetual progress, the brave new world of fusion power, space colonies, and all those other facile daydreams of human omnipotence is just as far away today as it was in the early 1970s.

Saying that if people drastically changed their way of life they could still only offset a few % of the impact humanity has on the planet whereas corporations could offset most of it makes complete sense... if you don't realize that 100% of humanity is people and 0% of corporations would survive if those people's way of life meant not doing any business with them.
We have all the power needed. We just need the bravery.#climatecrisis #climatechange #environment #lifepreservation #collapsology
