    01/07/2026 | 13 mins.

    Daily Episode 193 - Geoengineering is Coming, "Termination Shock" and All

    29/06/2026 | 28 mins.
    Geoengineering is becoming more normalized by the day, and it seems like it may be heading towards a "when" not an "if". With increasing arguments for using it, the arguments against it (and pleas for slowing down its progress) are being largely ignored. Will it result in "termination shock"?

About Breaking Down: Collapse
Apprehensive about the future? Like many, you likely have a gut feeling that things aren't quite right, but haven’t been able to place your finger on why. That feeling only grows with the increasing political tensions, economic uncertainty, natural disasters, and supply chain disruptions. What do all these challenges mean? And what will be the result of society’s current trajectory? “Breaking Down: Collapse” takes the complex concepts surrounding the ultimate collapse of modern industrial society and simplifies them so they’re easier to learn. The compelling evidence for our inevitable decline is introduced by collapse-aware Kory to his good friend, Kellan, who probably doesn’t realize what he signed up for! Skeptical? Gear up for a paradigm shift! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
