This brings me to FEASTA's second offering, their book titled "Fleeing Vesuvius" that is about how to survive this ominous state of affairs.
Fleeing Vesuvius is a compendium of voices advocating hands-on strategies involving everything from spending wisely to learning new skills to building community to avoiding a bunker mentality. I am with them 100%.
You can get the book on Amazon for $20 or less, or read it for free on the FEASTA web site.
Of the book one Amazon reviewer says:
"the policies advanced here by the authors are developed in the open and will benefit all people and not just a privileged minority. The wider the audience for these ideas the greater our chances of collective survival."
You know, this is not an academic exercise. We each need to be leaders in new ways of thinking. You may not think of yourself as another Joan of Arc, but people are hungry for vision and do you see it being supplied by politicians or the media? How about Hollywood? No, we have to do it.
