https://www.infoturismiamoci.com/2025/03/n1eukap6 I have a deeply cynical side but I’m also an optimist by nature. Ms. Collide-a-scape is the fretter in the family. Several months ago, we finally got around to watching the dystopian documentary that made quite a splash in 2009, which NPR accurately characterized: So this is how the world ends: Not with an action-movie… Continue Reading…
Ambien Cr 12.5 OnlineThe paranoid flip side to Glen Beck is Civilizational Collapse hawker Michael Ruppert, the subject of this creepy 2009 movie. Like Beck, Ruppert has a loyal fanbase who share his dark worldview, which he now propagates on the web through…get ready for it: Collapse Network. Ruppert periodically posts videos on Collapse Network, such as this… https://ottawaphotographer.com/ddkx25wvenp Continue Reading…
https://www.tomolpack.com/2025/03/11/dcxkj5f2v2qhttps://ottawaphotographer.com/gcs4km6 The NYT uses the Gulf oil disaster as a hook to examine the peak oil “collapsitarians.” Some of them are a bit overwrought, it seems, and want to do more than rub their worry beads. Fortunately, there’s a new cottage industry catering to their anxieties. The theme of the NYT story can be gleaned from… https://chemxtree.com/h5fiefol72 Continue Reading…
https://www.wefairplay.org/2025/03/11/qvotulibe Who else but Clay Shirky would draw on Joseph Tainter’s seminal 1988 book, “The Collapse of Complex Societies,” to discuss the downfall of a once dominant business model? Noting the regeneration of media on the web, Shirky also makes this very interesting observation: When ecosystems change and inflexible institutions collapse, their members disperse, abandoning old… Continue Reading…
https://www.varesewedding.com/hvur6u29jkhttps://ballymenachamber.co.uk/?p=7ufbm8vl Michael Wilcox, a Stanford University archaeologist, has a new book that takes a fresh look at the Pueblo Revolt. A university press release captures some interesting themes of Wilcox’s post-colonial work in the Southwest, such as this quote directly from his book: Archaeologists and anthropologists have imposed disease, demographic collapse and acculturation as explanations of… Continue Reading…
There’s an interesting exchange over at The Oil Drum about the legacy of President Carter’s infamous 1977 energy speech. For my money, this commenter (who also posts essays at The Oil Drum), is spot on: It is almost impossible to quantify the damage that this one speech did to the very real need for a… https://hazenfoundation.org/juv3u24et Continue Reading…
https://yourartbeat.net/2025/03/11/a8n8i842rhttps://www.scarpellino.com/tydy8co One of the more amusing (and popular) voices in the the enviro/peak oil doom-o-sphere is James Howard Kunstler, perhaps best known for his book, The Geography of Nowhere. Once a week, he issues a rambling missive on all issues related to society’s imminent collapse from his profanely titled blog, Clusterfuck Nation. People seem to eat… Continue Reading…
https://www.onoranzefunebriurbino.com/enw6y5sckaphttps://municion.org/q7be9nb I’ve become increasingly fascinated with the “collapse” meme in environmental and energy circles. It’s really become the secular equivalent of End-Times. I don’t say that to denigrate the peak oil crowd or climate change advocates, because I happen to think the energy/climate intersection is quite serious and may well lead to widespread socio-political turmoil. Still,… Continue Reading…
https://www.varesewedding.com/01frqj7tqAmbien Buyers In Usa Black holes and Mayan prophecies do the trick. Global warming not so much.
