https://yourartbeat.net/2025/03/11/08yt2x27d I have often asked myself, What was Jared Diamond thinking when he first learned that everything Easter Island symbolized to him might be wrong? Did the prize-winning, internationally celebrated writer ever look around at the accumulating evidence and think that maybe–just maybe–Easter Island isn’t the best metaphor for ecocide?

Beware of Cautionary Lessons

April 13, 2009 by Keith Kloor | Filed in collapse, Easter Island, Jared Diamond, sustainability | 4 comments

https://www.plantillaslago.com/9sft30y Some months ago, Joseph Tainter published a withering essay entitled, “Collapse, Sustainability, and the Environment: How Authors Choose to Fail or Succeed.” The title is a clever play off of Jared Diamond’s 2005 best-seller. Anyone interested in an overview of collapse literature and a counter-perspective to the current popularizing of the concept should read Tainter’s… https://www.salernoformazione.com/vav56hm6m3 Continue Reading…
