  1. Last week the excellent Crazy Town from the #postCarbon folks at resilience.org pointed me at the Bundyville podcast from Leah Sottile.

    I’m only 3 episodes in but already I’m reeling at the tapestry of right wing American dysfunction it’s revealing to me.

    It begins with the story of the 2014 armed uprising in Bunkerville, Nevada, led by the Bundy family (no, nothing to do with Ted).

    That’s weird enough but where it goes from there is more interesting

  2. Conversations between @Eceni and Simon Michaux are always must-listen. Serious thought on the constraints of production in a #PostCarbon society, and consequently how we have to change if anyone is to survive the #ClimateEmergency.

    Very strongly recommended.

  4. The Modern World Can't Exist Without These Four Ingredients. They All Require Fossil Fuels

    Four materials rank highest on the scale of necessity, forming what I have called the four pillars of modern civilization: cement, steel, plastics, and ammonia are needed in larger quantities than are other essential inputs. The world now produces annually about 4.5 billion tons of cement, 1.8 billion tons of steel, nearly 400 million tons of plastics, and 180 million tons of ammonia. But it is ammonia that deserves the top position as our most important material: its synthesis is the basis of all nitrogen fertilizers, and without their applications it would be impossible to feed, at current levels, nearly half of today’s nearly 8 billion people.
