"Ben Green expects doom and his remote, self-sufficient farm is his refuge should society end as we know it. Cavanagh, though, sees something more like potential."

In an abandoned military barracks in rural Germany, Ben Green is preparing for the end of the world. For @hazlitt.bsky.social, @mmcavanagh.bsky.social
spent a week with him to find out what exactly it looks like to try to escape climate collapse: hazlitt.net/longreads/hi...

"At the Collapse Lab, Ben gathered like-minded people who believed that climate collapse wasn’t just imminent, it was happening now.... I was curious. Collapse-curious, I joked to my friends..." The Hideaway by @mmcavanagh.bsky.social for @hazlitt.bsky.social.

last summer i spent a week living in an old army barracks-turned-eco-bunker, deep in the east german forest.

i was there for the Collapse Laboratory, a retreat that brought people together to think about how to prepare for the end of the world.

for the LA review of books i wrote about c pam zhang’s novel Land of Milk and Honey — about pleasure, survival and catastrophe — and the shrinking margin between dystopia and reality: lareviewofbooks.org/article/find...

for @theatlantic.bsky.social i wrote about lytton, the canadian town still waiting to move home after it burned to the ground in 2021. what can it teach us about how to rebuild resiliently after a climate disaster?
