The Elephant in the Room - a conversation with demographer Paul Morland
Переглядів 2,7 тис.7 місяців тому
In our preoccupation with climate catastrophe, we forget to talk about another ticking time bomb: the demography of the UK, specifically, that we're a comparatively old country. Just like climate change, this is not a crisis that we can outrun or sidestep by hope alone. Instead, we need to grapple with the facts and choices now, if we want to preserve our current standard of living through the ...

“See Nature, rejoicing, has shown us the way” - a concert by Stevie Wishart
Переглядів 407 місяців тому
Composer and musician Stevie Wishart sees music as a form of activism for the environment in terms of listening to it in a new way. That's why her chosen instrument is the hurdy gurdy - a fiddle-like instrument of unknown origin dating back to the 11th century which is, to her mind, classless and timeless, just like nature itself. Moreover, the hurdy gurdy is not susceptible to structured, defi...

    Birth rates will continue going down. It’s not faith, or the lack of it. It’s not money, or the lack of it. It’s time, or the lack of it. What is time made of? It's made up of 4 elements when there's room for only 3 of them, unless you want to be heading towards fundamental dissatisfaction due to a lack of time - a dissatisfaction that can lead to burn-out and the destruction of a personality. The 4 elements are: 1) Sleep. 2) Work. 3) Family (children). 4) ‘Leisure’ (screens, reading, love, friendships, solitude, playing a musical instrument, personal development, etc.) Can you do without sleep? Obviously not. Cutting back on sleep is bad for your health. Very. Can you do without work? Yes, if you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. In other words: no, you can't. That leaves only two adjustment variables. If you are reasonable, you do what the watchdogs of reasonable living keep telling you: when you reach ‘adulthood’, you behave like an adult and drastically reduce the amount of time you devote to ‘leisure’, particularly screen time. But here's the snag: living an adult life, a reasonable life, is the best way to miss out on life. This has become impossible to hide.

    Talking about cost of living and comparing wealthy countries to poorer countries misses a big part. There are local laws and local cultural expectations plays a big part in relative wealth and poverty, and perception of wealth. I can't build a make shift house on public land without repercussions. People need to feel like they can support themselves before they feel like they can support a family in the current environment.

    All these demographers talk about is birth rates. What about death rates? The global health system is on the verge of being overwhelmed by the METABOLIC SYNDROME epidemic caused by the processed food industry and aided and abetted by Big Pharma. On top of this the mother of all energy crises is coming which will cause famines and the destruction of the economic system, as forecast more than fifty years ago by the Club of Rome.

    The pro-natal narrative falls apart - how are we only discussing “government actions” when the private sector doesn’t care? Example from rich Norway (caveats): Median income ≈£50k, house/appartment ≈ 6-9 x median income. Bank allows ≈80% mortgage, but reduces allowance by £100k PER CHILD…? You’re 30 with just one child, and you can not borrow the amount needed to enter the housing market. Rentals are too expensive, too small, don’t want “noisy children” and quite unavailable in rural areas. If a government subsidises this, the financial markets profits - not people in general. Giving further inflation in housing, not towards affordability from income…?

    It is entirely possible for the world to be overpopulated, and have a low TFR. We are currently in the first stage of a correction from overshoot. It will take decades or even centuries to correct. The more hopeful scenarios take longer, but still require a long period of correction to a lower population. If we don’t do it voluntarily, it’ll happen to us.

It's too ate for them, they cannot fix their problems. Export economies like China will suffer massively because they cannot consume their output and they won't be able to export either because the rest of the planet won't have enough consumers either.

But those were agrarian civilizations, not industrial. Many Industrialized Countries inadvertently set up situations that have led to their Demographic decline while others have not. Those populations are fair. The Collapsing ones will lead to internal conflicts and chaos followed by a long pause then recovery. But it will be ugly.
