“The collapse is already here, it’s just not evenly distributed.”

1. It is time to face the realities of collapse: the unravelling of systems and structures that many of us grew up taking for granted.
2. Framing this as a set of “problems” to be solved doesn’t help us face these realities – because it suggests that, with the right solutions, our societies could get back on the path they appeared to be on.
3. Refusing the “problem–solution” mindset doesn’t mean giving up and doing nothing – there is still plenty of work worth doing that has a chance of affecting how things play out.
4. To catch sight of the work worth doing and to become capable of contributing to it, we need multiple lenses, new maps and tools for orientation, practical and cultural skills.
5. We also need to find each other, in the in-between spaces of the internet and in the on-the-ground places where we start from.
