About The Book
Description
Author
Since the inception of our industrial revolution we increasingly ingenious Homo sapiens have been depleting - persistently and increasingly - the finite non-replenishing and increasingly scarce NNRs (nonrenewable natural resources) that enable our industrialized way of life and our very existence. Regrettably because the NNR utilization behavior that enables our species existence - and that is essential to perpetuating our existence - simultaneously undermines our existence both our NNR utilization behavior and our resultant industrial lifestyle paradigm are unsustainable. As a perverse consequence of our unparalleled ingenuity we have become enmeshed in a self-inflicted inescapable and self-terminating predicament - we are doomed if we persist in our unsustainable NNR utilization behavior and we are doomed if we do not - a predicament that will resolve itself catastrophically for humankind. The premise of Blip is that increasingly pervasive global NNR scarcity is causing faltering global human prosperity which is causing increasing global political instability economic fragility and societal unrest. This scenario will intensify during the coming decades and culminate in humanitys self-inflicted global societal (species) collapse almost certainly by the year 2050. Blip substantiates these seemingly inconceivable assertions by synthesizing the quantitative and qualitative evidence produced by hundreds of scientists scholars researchers and analysts in the various physical sciences and behavioral sciences that address the origins and evolution of industrial humanity and human industrialism. These experts produced the dots which are connected clearly and comprehensibly in Blip. We will soon discover that humanitys self-terminating experiment with industrialism represents a mere 300 year blip along the three million year timeline of human existence.
