Together these might enable us to remain standing during the coming storm, to develop a new awareness of ourselves and of the world and to imagine new ways of living in it. Perhaps then it will be possible to regenerate life from the ruins, creating new alliances in differing directions – with ourselves and our inner nature, between humans, with other living beings and with the earth on which we dwell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853969543404,"sku":"9781509544660","price":35.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/12468853482725.jpg?v=1759228792"},{"product_id":"how-everything-can-collapse-by-pablo-servigne-9781509541393","title":"How Everything Can Collapse","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat if our civilization were to collapse? Not many centuries into the future, but in our own lifetimes? Most people recognize that we face huge challenges today, from climate change and its potentially catastrophic consequences to a plethora of socio-political problems, but we find it hard to face up to the very real possibility that these crises could produce a collapse of our entire civilization. Yet we now have a great deal of evidence to suggest that we are up against growing systemic instabilities that pose a serious threat to the capacity of human populations to maintain themselves in a sustainable environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this important book, \u003cem\u003eHow Everything Can Collapse\u003c\/em\u003e, Pablo Servigne and Raphaël Stevens confront these issues head-on. They examine the scientific evidence and show how its findings, often presented in a detached and abstract way, are connected to people’s ordinary experiences – joining the dots, as it were, between the Anthropocene and our everyday lives. In so doing, they provide a valuable guide that will help everyone make sense of the new and potentially catastrophic situation in which we now find ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday, utopia has changed sides: it is the utopians who believe that everything can continue as before, while realists put their energy into making a transition and building local resilience. Collapse is the horizon of our generation. But collapse is not the end – it’s the beginning of our future. We will reinvent new ways of living in the world and being attentive to ourselves, to other human beings and to all our fellow creatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47072283885804,"sku":"9781509541393","price":35.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/12436183482725.jpg?v=1765091190"},{"product_id":"mutual-aid-by-pablo-servigne-9781509547920","title":"Mutual Aid","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the merciless arena of life, we are all subject to the law of the jungle, to ruthless competition and the survival of the fittest—such is the myth that has given rise to a society that has become toxic for our planet and for our and future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut today the lines are shifting.
