"The Long Descent" part 5 by J.M. Greer (narrated by M. Dowd)

Описание: "The Long Descent" by John Michael Greer was published in 2008. In 2016, Michael Dowd volunteered to narrate the book to make its audio freely available on his Soundcloud account. Author and publisher both agreed. To make the audios more accessible to search engines, these were converted into a 6-part youtube series in 2025 by Dowd's widow, Connie Barlow.

Part 5 narration entails Chapter 5: "Tools for the Transition," which has these internal sections:

04:03 - 5a. The Strategy of Salvage
13:01 - 5b. Renewable Energy
23:43 - 5c. Climbing Down the Ladder
35:59 - 5d. Technological Triage
48:25 - 5e. Feeding the Deindustrial Future
58:53 - 5f. How Not to Save Science
1:09:45 - 5g. Building Tomorrow's Societies

All of Michael Dowd's volunteer book and blog audio narrations can be accessed through his "Grace Limits Audios" webpage: https://thegreatstory.org/sustainabil...

The subsection of that page featuring audio narrations of Greer's publications is here: https://thegreatstory.org/sustainabil...

The best way to see (and thus choose) among all of Dowd's youtube postings of his own work is to visit the Postdoom Pastor webpage: https://thegreatstory.org/michaeldowd...
There you will also find his biography, many photos, and a special set of videos that he titled, "Honor Your and Our Mortality."

Four years before his death, Dowd also founded the Postdoom community and its associated website: Postdoom.com. Website volunteer Gerry Russell created a "Resources" page there that is an ideal way to access all Dowd narrations of books on the topic of collapse. Just go to the page and scroll down to the "Audios" section. There you will see images of all 26 BOOKS that he narrated, beginning in 2016 and continuing up to his death, October 2023: https://postdoom.com/resources/
