The interview is being hosted by David Baum from the Collapse Club. Its all via YouTube and will be recorded. We don’t think it will include audience questions, but when we post the recording please feel free to ask us things!

Thanks. In case you can fit it in, a big question that our group is struggling with is how to compassionately but determinedly convey the notion of likely collapse, and the need to face it and address it, without either triggering someone into a depression down spiral, or coming across as a doom and gloomer on the corner with a “the end is near” sign?

This is a difficult one. As we talked about in the interview, Just Collapse focuses on telling it like it is, but we recognize that hearing about collapse can lead people into a grief process that includes depression, denial, anger and so on. There is a role of trained therapists and counsellors here.
In terms of ‘doom and gloom’, we emphasize that there is so much to be done on the down. In fact, there is perhaps more to done now than if collapse wasn’t happening. Collapse provides a focus and priority for action. We will have more to say about the idea of a planned collapse in coming weeks.
