Is this really true? Is this the end of time? Between epidemics, climate catastrophe, and nuclear threats—not to mention the ever-growing background hum of rage, fear, and anxiety—it’s starting to feel like the party we call civilization is about to end. On one level, this isn’t great news. On the other, it’s happened before.
Drawing on evolutionary psychology, history, brain science, game theory, and more, cooperation theorist (and zombie expert, by the way) Athena Aktipis reassuringly explains that we, as a species, are adapted to survive global catastrophes, and can do it again and again, using our innate skills for communication and cooperation.
Pack a ukulele in your bug-out bag. Practice your risk management skills. Form a survival team. And accept that the apocalypse is coming. You might even like it. Moreover, all this will help to shape a better and more sustainable future for all humanity.
