I agree entirely. A new infusion of available net energy leads to a feeding frenzy and population explosion, which leads to ecological overshoot. And when the spike in net energy peaks and falls, a great die-off ensues. It’s common throughout biological history. Now it’s our turn, and it won’t be pretty…If any of us survive, it will be the most healthy, competent, and resilient—not necessarily the richest (since money is just arithmetic whose value is socially determined, and will quickly lose all its value when the “endless growth” economy collapses (as it must). So what’s the best thing we can do while we are still alive? Grow gardens, grow community, grow awareness. Do all within our power to promote the health, competence, and resilience of ourselves, our loved ones, our community, and our living planet.
