Historian Christopher Clark in Foreign Policy sees the collapse of modernity. What’s really ending is industrial civilisation’s life-cycle. What comes next depends on whether we embrace collapse or renewal.| Age of Transformation
The AMOC may collapse by mid-century—and we may be seeing the first signs now. What happens next could reshape our civilisation.| Age of Transformation
A civilisational fulcrum is shifting beneath our feet. OPEC signalled its own unraveling. Simultaneously, Europe burned. And yet, amid the collapse, coherence begins to rise. Offshore wind. Battery recycling. Nature-backed finance. This is not a transition - it's a phase shift.| Age of Transformation
The world is shifting—irreversibly—from fossil-fuelled industrialism to planetary-scale regeneration. The question now is not whether the phase shift is real, but how quickly we learn to navigate it.| Age of Transformation
The circular-economy market is not a slow-burn niche; it is riding the same mutually reinforcing disruption waves dismantling the industrial system. When viewed as one coupled system, it's a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity over the next decade| Age of Transformation
Integrating the 'Crisis of Civilisation', collapse dynamics, and global transition theory to understand how we can make the next great leap in human evolution| Age of Transformation
The planetary phase shift framework helps us to see the new era of Trump's trade wars as part of the last stages in the life-cycle of our civilisation - and the precursor to a rapid new geopolitical and economic reordering of the international system.| Age of Transformation
We are facing the end of 'the West'. Some of our best science shows the US empire is following the collapse-path of the USSR - but this is also the precursor to the emergence of a new life-cycle for civilisation.| Age of Transformation
Elon Musk is launching an authoritarian coup within the 2nd Trump presidency. Seen through planetary phase shift theory, this is a backslide into collapse. The battle lines are drawn. All humanity holds dear is at stake. We fight back by recognising our true power.| Age of Transformation
Superabundance is within reach. But ironically, the precondition to getting it is by giving it up. It sounds paradoxical, but this is actually the key to the next great leap in human evolution. I set this out with a rigorous scientific framework in my new paper on the Planetary Phase Shift.| Age of Transformation
We are all feeling it. Grief, despair, anxiety, chaos. This essay, which distils the planetary phase shift framework, gives you the tools to see through the chaos to recognise emerging possibilities of a new system that could enable superabundance beyond our wildest imaginations.| Age of Transformation
Unfolding conflict across Israel, Gaza, Lebanon and Iran is not just a regional breakdown, but a global systemic rupture in the context of the planetary phase shift as industrial civilisation moves through the last stages of its life-cycle.| Age of Transformation
When we look at the rise of the global far-right through a systems lens, we can recognise that it as a symptom of crisis and collapse - as well as the potential for renewal. Today, humanity stands at a political inflection point in which the only viable path forward involves total transformation.| Age of Transformation
