"The future is of course impossible to predict, but in all likelihood we’re
headed for a world where everything is a lot more local, one way or the other.
Whether by choice (to reduce emissions and be more resilient), or through a
full-on collapse, our way of life is going to change drastically over the next
decades.
The future we’re looking at is likely to be a lot more disconnected in terms of
the movement of goods, people, as well as information. This will necessitate
producing things locally, with whatever resources are available locally. Given
the complexity of most supply chains, this means many things we build today
probably won’t be produced at all anymore, so there will need to be a lot more
repair, and a lot less consumption.
Above all though, this will necessitate much stronger communities at the local
level, working together to keep things running and make life liveable in the
face of the catastrophes to come."
