Collapse Adaptation

1st Posted 22nd December 2025 1st Update 28th December 2025 What happens when crops fail ? People starve, apart from preppers right? What preppers are getting wrong about collapse is climate breakdown. They might have a stockpile of food and a YouTube channel, which makes them recognisable and a target. Desperate people don't care. - This seems very dark. Many of those YouTube Preppers are on the Far-Right, busy praising Donald Trump & Worshipping Billionaires, sending the Money to the various grifters, and fantasising about being an ICE agent, just for the opportunity for racially driven cruelty. Preppers starve eventually, too, but they will be the obviously well-fed among us. Long Pig perhaps? What does AI think? Source https://un-denial.com/2025/11/09/ai-on-collapse/? I think AI has the same optimism as the IPCC and COP30 COPout, the world's biggest polluters trade show. Pushing the eternal growth paradigm as nature is depleted. So wh...

Agricultural Breadbasket failures have a habit of snowballing.  2025- Harvest of Cereals and Oilseed was down 20-25% Just to be clear, none of the preppers even noticed a drought or lack of rain this spring until the government started announcing it.  Climate Change is off the Prepper Agenda , which means forward intel on grain basket failures is not something they are sharing with their followers. But at the same time XR, & people associated with XR like Dr Gail Bradbrook might ne talking about empty supermarket shelves and the only solution she has to offer is Mutual Aid, food banks and ceremonialists. Most UK Preppers Deny Climate Change  and like XReadiness  failures to identify the issues on the horizon. This month the Met Office said that 2025 was on course to be the UK's hottest year since records began, with climate change driving higher temperatures. During 2025 we had several heatwaves. During 1 heatwave there were s...

1 De-escalation of confrontation . When Preppers declare they have Voted for Russias Puppet Party, and then start telling people about humour, while weaponising the Union flag. Notne of these traits is suggestive of any ability to be good citizens. We don't need far right ideas spread by Russian agitators and politicians taking money from foreign states. So the thinking behind de-escalation, is that its good for your mental health to be less paranoid about those around you. We are already.living in collapse. We have time to teach our neighbours. Share in a an allotment or join a growing group. People are interested in prepping, ti stop people raiding you, teach them what to do, set up community  food stores and distribution hubs. Build resistant communities. 2 Multiple and low tech nature based water purification techniques:  Don't rely on shop bought water filters learn multiple techniques for making drinking water from dirty water.

The primarily purpose of this blog post is to promote good mental health through contact with nature and teach people self reliance  especially for people experiencing climate Anxiety and climate related depression. I don't care what people believe in, however I think some people's approach to nature connection and therapy is deeply flawed. I am concerned that Dr Gail Bradbrook is taken in by Shamanic practitioners attending to climate grief and depression when there are psychiatric and psychological studies that indicate that prolonged contact with nature is good for our mental health. Its not just for charging our batteries. But the Shamanic Practitioners aren't offering nature therapy using medically proven techniques and peer reviewed data. Instead they are using New Age Pic'n'mix psychobabble. They are likely to do more damage, than help. Meaningful activity in nature is a psychiatrically proven non- medication intervention to ease Generalised Anxiety, one of ...

Leadership In Collapse Coaching?, Its All About Trutopian, Collapse Fantasies 'More Than a Mohawk, Why Thrutopian Punks Don't Just Burn It Down" Feature by Rachel Pryor Bending The Arc Meventine It's on Substack, here Rachel Pryor (MCC 1999 - 2018) is a coach, systemic facilitator and creator of transformative tools that that support leadership during collapse and transition Punk was never radical counter culture. Claiming it is, is the is a crude attempt to over-write the real counter-culture, out of which leaderless collective grass-roots enviro-anarchism and the he Deep Green Resiatancethe was born.  I Have A Problem With Leaders Anarchy is a philosophy of leaderless organisation, and I have seen it work in small communities. I have seen anarchy bring 1000s of people together to organise and coordinate resistance and the defence of nature in the 1990s. Leaders Gate-Keep . The only reason XR got involved with HS2 was because 1990s road protest veterans were raising ...

You'd have to be an advanced prepper  to survive a collapse Let's assume we're only talking about climate collapse. Not Nuclear War . The reality of AMOC collapse, sea level rise, catastrophic flooding, deadly heat, ferocious storms, and life without agriculture in a world of 2°C or more is this: if you are not on your way to learning expert survival skills, collapse will be impossible. It takes someone on Joe Rogan to point that out!  Expert-level survivalists are also commonly known as hunter-gatherers. Expert-level survivalism requires a deep connection with nature or what Manda Scott calls the "web of life" As a wilderness practitioner, I observe people closely, it's how trackers operate. People constantly leak information about themselves, even if they are trying to hide it. The more complex the persona propagada you project, the deeper the cracks are that let observers see in, but rarely do these cracks let any light in.  Celtic Shamanism Has...

The system is Scalable fir more or less and for solar thermal.  The above system requires no electricity to operate it operates using convection, gravity and a thermosyphon.

“The era of global warming has ended; the era of global boiling has arrived. Leaders must lead. No more hesitancy. No more excuses. No more waiting for others to move first. There is simply no more time for that. It is still possible to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius and avoid the very worst of climate change. But only with dramatic, immediate climate action.” United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres What Can You Do? @UNDRR  YouTube.

During collapse once things start breaking, that's it, they are broken for good. We are in the Clinate Emergency and Collapes is a sporadic ongoing fact. Natural disasters push small low lying islands towards total collapse from sea inundation. Cyclones and tropical storms bringing flooding, death & widespread destruction. Driving small nations towards collapse. When the water that comes out of the tap is not safe to drink or is brackish, undrinkable, then we make other arrangements or die from the worlds biggest solvable killer. I grew up in a country where the water from the tap wasn't safe, it was brackish water.  3 times a week we went to collect water for drinking and cooking from desalination stations. The Gold Standard for water sterilisation is boiling. But if your water is turbid (suspended microparticles) then it requires filtering to get it clean 1st.  Filtering Water Mechanical/Screen Milbag, laundry net or tampon in a bottle neck.

"The 1795 food riots are known as the revolt of the housewives, a term coined by John Lawrence Hammond and Barbara Hammond for a series of food riots and disturbances in England in 1795. They arose out of exceptional food scarcity. Women played conspicuous roles in the riots." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolt_of_the_housewives The Arab Spring Was A Food Crisis Propagandised by America.  Travis Lupick "Beginning in late 2010, citizens of the Arab world rose up in protest to express their long-held dissatisfactions with their governments. Unstable food security and the recent international food price spikes were certainly one of their many grievances and was likely the factor that sparked the initial unrest, yet the level of unrest greatly varied in intensity throughout the region. Can an analysis of the state of food security in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) be used to explain why the Arab Spring was more vibrant in some countries than in others? To answe...

UK Knife laws "Basic laws on knives and weapons It’s illegal to use any knife or weapon in a threatening way.

Dont openly carry a knife in a UK town or city. If you are passing through towns or cities in the UK, hide knives, axes and billhooks deep in your p...

Stratospheric Warming Watch: Polar Vortex Collapse has begun, with cold air and snowfall impacts expected Published: 21/11/2025 https://www.severe-weather.eu/global-weather Driven by warming A few years ago, I talked about how climate deniers would point to situations like the polar vortex as evidence that we are heading back into the "predicted" Ice Age. That would be catastrophic for farming, the UK temperature could drop by 5°C. People woukd leave the country in droves to warmer Europe. Britains population woukd drop, this who stay either die or adapt to brutally cold winters and brutally hot summers. But its also a survival fantasy.
