We are definitely f….ed! Only one of these boundaries needs to be ‘transgressed’ to bring about the collapse of habitable Earth. We’ve not only transgressed six, we’ve smashed four out of the park and into another dimension. Read the full paper here. Get real – #TalkCollapse because this is collapse.

“Any reasonable interpretation of previous histories, current trends, and complex systems dynamics would hold that global MTI culture is beginning to unravel and that the one-off human population boom is destined to bust… wide-spread societal collapse cannot be averted… Global civilizational collapse will almost certainly be accompanied by a major human population ‘correction’”, Professor BillContinue reading “Inevitable major population correction”

Irreversible climate-ecological collapse changes politics and action. Activism has been about building a better, brighter future. Now it must be about easing the inevitable descent – first and foremost for the poor, marginalised and voiceless. In this video, Associate Professor Kate Booth talks about the politics of #InsurgentPlanning for a #JustCollapse.

Associate Professor Kate Booth, co-founder of Just Collapse, connects climate-ecological collapse, accelerating withdrawal of insurance, the inevitable trajectory of urban planning towards #InsurgentPlanning, and the immorality of promoting a growing global population in times of escalating food scarcity. Listen to the full interview. #TalkCollapse for a #JustCollapse!

What goes up, must come down. Many wish there was more communication between the climate/overshoot/energy/resource experts… Fortunately, Steve Bull has solicited a wide range of views for his “Best Of… ” compilation, offering a more comprehensive view of the predicament than is generally found elsewhere.

This is collapse – a #RadicalDegrowth to ecological limits: Dr Mike Joy, “From an ecologist’s perspective, #Degrowth is inevitable on our current trajectory… Ecology tells us that many species overshoot their environment’s carrying capacity if they have temporary access to an unusually high level of resources. Overshoot declines when those resources return to more stableContinue reading “THIS is degrowth”

1.5C is lost. Gen Z, those younger, and yet to be born deserve justice. Act now for a #JustCollapse!

#TalkCollapse goes mainstream on CNN (5 minute video). Professor Eliot Jacobson neatly explains, with 3 graphs, why our civilisation is collapsing in a global mass extinction event. Will humans survive?

Degrowth? “…reductions can be achieved while… delivering decent living standards for a global population of ten billion – including housing, electricity, heating/cooling, clean cooking, refrigeration, transit, health care, education, sanitation, mobile phones, and computing.” Professor Jason Hickel Co-opting degrowth for business as usual won’t bring us back within planetary boundaries. #RadicalDegrowth

The failure of governments to respond to our predicament leaves us no choice other than to protect habitat in our local places and communities. Acting for socio-ecological justice won’t stop collapse but it can help ease the descent. #InsurgentPlanning for ecology in pictures.
