Has anyone read “The Busy Worker’s Handbook to the Apocalypse”? The document/post is available here.
What are your thoughts on it? If you just look at the conclusion, it sounds doomy, however, if you read the whole thing, it seems to be based on facts. I haven’t read the whole thing, I skimmed through it though.
I am interested in hearing your thoughts.
This is incredibly misnamed. Neither a “worker’s” nor a “handbook” nor “to the apocalypse”. It has no consideration for the needs of workers, no proposals for action, and no advice for surviving change.
Where are the guides on how to facilitate mass migration? Where are the guides for agriculture in the absence of international supply lines and fertilizer? Where are the checklists of supplies for individuals, small communities, and large communities?
I am a “doomer” too. But I understand that we can be the difference between 9 billion and 2 billion deaths, between 98% of species and 80% of species going extinct, and it would be nice if a handbook to the apocalypse helped in any way to bring those numbers down.
Lifeboat ethics suggests we won’t, and probably shouldn’t.

I don’t know? Where are they? Post them. Create them.
If all you have to say of the 57 pages of the document is “the title is wrong”: Thank you for your contribution.
