Synopsis:

What we do to enable our existence simultaneously undermines our existence...
 
Our enormous and ever-increasing utilization of NNRs (nonrenewable natural resources) - the finite and non-replenishing fossil fuels, metals, and nonmetallic minerals that enable our industrial existence - is causing
 
· Increasingly pervasive global NNR scarcity, which is causing
· Faltering global human prosperity, which is causing
· Increasing global political instability, economic fragility, and societal unrest.
 
This scenario will intensify during the coming decades and culminate in humanity's permanent global societal collapse, almost certainly by the year 2050.
 
Sound inconceivable? Read Blip, then decide...
 
Chris Clugston synthesizes the quantitative and qualitative evidence produced by hundreds of scientists, scholars, researchers, and analysts in the various physical sciences and behavioral sciences that address the origins and evolution of industrial humanity and human industrialism.
 
These experts produced the "dots", which Clugston connects clearly and comprehensibly in Blip.
 
We will soon discover that humanity's self-terminating experiment with industrialism represents a mere 300 year "blip" along the three million year timeline of human existence. 

From the Author: I wrote Blip in order to address the real inconvenient truth - we industrialized Homo sapiens are on an unsustainable course, the inevitable culmination of which is our imminent demise. Regrettably, our only "acceptable" option going forward is to stay the course. This is our "predicament".
 
The purpose of Blip is to create universal awareness of our predicament, in the hope that someone will devise a less catastrophic resolution than the one that I envision.
