Walk towards hope?
***
After soaking in collapse literature and podcasts for a while, I find that the depression inherent in predictions is too strong. When that happens, I read Walkaway by Cory Doctorow. I followed that up with Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom.
It is interesting to see how Jacob Redwater is echoed in Keep-A-Moving Dan. Before I read Walkaway, I saw the Bitchin Society as a utopia.
Back to collapse: What part of Walkaway exists now? In my study of The Knowledge by Lewis Dartnell, I found baby incubators built from car parts[1] and Open Source Ecology[2].
Where could we look for free microbial beer, solar and wind to hydrogen cells, microbial food printers, and UN construction organization?
I'm looking for hope. Does anyone know?
