We're heading for an uninsurable future!
Yet, most of the world has never had modern insurance. Most rely on networks of care and reciprocity - what David @Graeber_social called small 'c' communism.
In unfolding and irreversible global collapse, I call it a @JustCollapse.

The idea of ‘surprise’ is attached to many kinds of collapses—the collapse of corporations, bridges, nation states, economies, natural systems. Yet so often there is information indicating a problem and people who know enough to see it coming.

... processes such as colonialism and capitalism. Hard won and partial though these may be, new solidaristic discourses and practices are refashioned from within what, and by whom, is in collapse." 3/3

So excited to be launching my new book that I'm starting with my conclusions and working backwards in a series of posts!
I conclude by eschewing big political projects (is this wise?) and focusing on how collapse changes ideas of solidarity: "In collapse, solidarity is a ... 1/3

In 'Nicomachean Ethics' Book II Aristotle observed that "it is possible to fail in many ways... while to succeed is possible only in one way (for which reason also one is easy and the other difficult."
This was reflected millennia later in the Anna Karenina principle...

The classic country song "The Gambler" displays more strategic intelligence than most of my workerist or ecocentrist colleagues and comrades:
You got to know when to hold 'em,
know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
and know when to run

#talkcollapse - or don't, if you're too chickenshit to be honest with yourself or others:
"Noch zögert Iversen, von einem #Kollaps des Ökosystems zu sprechen. Erst möchte er (noch) die Sedimentproben untersuchen, die er ...am Meeresgrund genommen hat."

#talkcollapse:
"90% of marine species at risk of extinction by 2100 if greenhouse gas emissions not curbed".
Translated: 90% of marine species will be dead in less than 75 years, because the world won't curb emissions, because we want growth über alles.

The German climate movement used to be among the most powerful. Then we, too, got flattened by the backlash & the reality of #collapse.
But there's a new hope in the darkness: a #justcollapse movement just held its 1st #Kollapscamp.

@JustCollapse So collapse is here...
In 1972, the calculations of “The Limits to Growth” produced scenarios indicating that the start of the collapse of the World’s economy would occur during the first decades of the 21st century. These calculations were based on physical factors and, ultimately, on thermodynamics. There is no thermodynamic reason why, when decline starts, leaders should go mad and squander the few remaining resources of their countries on a military buildup. But many historical examples show that it is the case. We are seeing exactly that in Europe. Apparently, we Europeans have the privilege (so to speak) to lead the world’s race to the bottom of the Seneca Cliff. It will be a rough ride.

Is it end of the world? Have multi-crises like climate change and over-consumption finally brought us to the brink?
Join two teams of science and culture heavy hitters for this battle of brains and bravado. Yes, that includes me - on the affirmative team!

There will be no post-collapse - new science:
‘A key implication of our work, however, is that life on Earth, while resilient, is unable to respond to massive changes on short time scales…’
This is why we act NOW for a #JustCollapse.

🫂💔 We feel for each other.
Don't stay alone.
There's a movement that speaks openly.
We are not a cult. Nor are we deniers.
We are simply facing the facts because that's the only way to help us.
Known globally as #JustCollapse movement.
