Christopher O. Clugston

Since 2006, Chris Clugston has conducted extensive research into industrialism and its evolution, with a focus on:

NNRs (nonrenewable natural resources) - the fossil fuels, metals and nonmetallic minerals

that comprise the infrastructure, machines, products, and energy that perpetuate our

industrial existence; and

Increasingly pervasive global NNR scarcity, and its implications for industrial humanity.

During the course of his research, Clugston developed an analytical framework for interpreting industrialism and its evolution from the ecological perspective - i.e., in terms of the evolving causal relationship between global NNR scarcity and industrial human prosperity.

Clugston's work explains how our industrial existence is enabled, why it is self-terminating, and why it is unraveling toward imminent collapse. His writings include three books pertaining to increasingly pervasive global NNR scarcity, and its implications for industrial humanity:

"Industrialism - Our Commitment to Impermanence",

"Blip - our 300 year self-terminating experiment with industrialism", and

"Scarcity - Humanity's Final Chapter?"
