Vanilla Club on Substack: https://vanillaclub.substack.com/ Our planet’s approach to renewable energy is totally dependent on fossil fuels and finite resources. What happens once we’ve exhausted the accessible portion of fossil fuels? And what could we have learnt from the Indigenous cultures of Earth? With the introduction of our own Substack, we are introducing a short run of episodes with Substackers whose writing that we admire. We came across The Honest Sorcerer's writing on Substack and were struck by his stark, no nonsense approach to the energy crisis we are facing. He is an anonymous narrator of the Earth's polycrisis, our overuse and dependence on finite resources, as well as the fragility of our modern systems and civilisation. A random walk through Honest Sorcerer's Substack is not for the faint hearted. In this episode, Honest Sorcerer takes us back to his turning point, from a hopeful mechanical engineering student, who believed that technology could solve the woes of the world, to the less optimistic truth teller that we see today. He also paints a pretty dark picture of what he thinks our future will look like if we continue with our consumptive and extractive ways. But he also reminds us that there is a sunnier side to the inevitable collapse. It is still a beautiful world where there will always be simple things to enjoy. We hope you enjoy. --------- Vanilla Club on Instagram:   / vanilla.club.au   Vanilla Club Podcast on other listening platforms: https://vanillaclubpodcast.buzzsprout...
