#JustCollapse is now on Instagram! In traversing the difficult terrain of collapse, there is, perhaps, little worse than being alone. Follow us to connect with others who understand our climate-ecological predicament. In solidarity!

Out of control! North Atlantic sea surface temperature keeps rising – a harbinger of food system collapse and geopolitical instability. #climatechange #AMOC #TalkCollapse This chart: The standard deviation is increasing well above the 30yr average. The further away from the black zero line, the warmer the temperature: Blue lines – all previous years; Yellow –Continue reading “Out of control sea temperatures”

Feeling hungry? As global systems break down, food is becoming scarce for more and more people. Ideas from Europe’s Marburg Action Plan – easing collapse through local food security: “Be inspired, take the ideas that move you, look for allies, adapt everything to regional circumstances, and keep going.” #InsurgentPlanning #MutualAid #SolidarityPrepping  New article: https://www.resilience.org/stories/2024-03-04/future-proof-food-systems-in-europe-a-call-for-action/

Not just Sudan. As prices soar and hunger sets in, governments become corrupt, hostile or ineffective – worthy only of collapse: “Today’s protest slogan in Sudan is ‘Tsgut Bss!’ This translates as ‘Just collapse!’ …the cost of one piece of bread today is the same as a sandwich, a soda and a cigarette ten yearsContinue reading “Tsgut Bss! – Just Collapse!”

The reality of climate, ecological, and material limits: “There is still a widespread belief that it is possible to transition away from fossil fuels, a myth which is contradicted by an ever growing body of evidence. Not that the previous model — based on coal, oil and gas — was even a slight bit more sustainable: we are talkingContinue reading “Self-defeating energy ‘transition’”

Politics-as-usual is radically disconnected from our climate and ecological realities. A new politics must emerge from this vacuum – the politics of a #JustCollapse based on solidaristic community responses to accelerating and intensifying collapse. #InsurgentPlanning #MutualAid #SolidarityPrepping

Does it feel like denial is getting worse, even as climate-ecological collapse becomes more self-evident? You are not alone. “Sometimes you can’t reason with someone. You can’t appeal to their logic or emotions. All you can do is fight them for influence. All you can do is help the ones you can. All you canContinue reading “Is denial getting worse?”

As climate-ecological collapse accelerates, global food systems crumble. Building solidaristic networks can ease the descent, like La Via Campesina – a movement of 182 organisations, in 81 countries, fighting for food sovereignty and land rights, in opposition to Big Ag and capitalism. #InsurgentPlanning for a #JustCollapse.

Female climate scientists choose – no kids: “The fact of the limitation of resources was really clear to me from a young age… Then I learned about climate change and it was even more clear to me… [My husband and I] don’t regret a moment.” Prof Regina Rodrigues, Brazil.  Every child not born neither contributesContinue reading “Female climate scientists choose – no kids”

This speech for a #JustCollapse was deliver at a protest against the construction of a motorway in Berlin, Germany.
