Novara FM: Is It Time For Post-Doom Politics? w/ Jem Bendell

The politics of ‘deep adaptation’ is as intriguing as it is controversial. Jem Bendell, a former professor of sustainability leadership, launched the Deep Adaptation movement in 2018 by claiming that social collapse is not just a plausible outcome of climate change, but an extremely likely one. He sat down with Richard Hames in Berlin to talk about the impact of his ideas on the movement, the promise of eco-libertarianism, the necessity of gallows humour in a crisis, and whether there is a climate politics beyond “doomerism”. Jem’s new book is ‘Breaking Together: A Freedom-Loving Response to Collapse’. Help us build people-powered media: http://novara.media/support
