Today, Peter shares four guideposts for this new reality. Read on… --------------------------------------------------------------- Four Guideposts for the End of the World as We Know It By Peter Zeihan, Author, The End of the World Is Just the Beginning Yesterday, I told you the world – our world – is breaking apart. The 2020s will see a collapse of consumption and production and investment and trade almost everywhere. Globalization will shatter into pieces. Some regional. Some national. Some smaller. It will be costly. It will make life slower. And above all, worse. [Featured: The diversification method is crushing people.]( No economic system yet imagined can function in the sort of future we face. This devolution will be jarring, to say the least. It’s taken us decades of peace to suss out this world of ours. To think that we will adapt easily or quickly to such titanic unravelings is to showcase more optimism than I’m capable of generating. But that’s not the same as saying I don’t have a few guideposts. Today, I’ll tell you what those guideposts are.

Four Guideposts for the End of the World as We Know It First comes something I call the “Geography of Success.” Place matters. Hugely. The Egyptian cities are where they are because they had the perfect mix of water and desert buffer for the preindustrial age. Somewhat similarly, the Spanish and Portuguese rose to dominance not simply because of their early mastery of deepwater technologies… But because their location on a peninsula somewhat freed them from the general melee of the European continent. Toss industrial technologies into the mix and the story shifts. Applying coal and concrete and railways and rebar en masse takes a lot of money. And the only places that could self-fund were those with a plethora of capital-generating navigable waterways. Germany has more than anyone in Europe, making the German rise inevitable. But the Americans have more than anyone in the world – than everyone else in the world – making the German fall just as inevitable.

Best-selling author Peter Zeihan lays it all out in his latest book, The End of the World is Just the Beginning. [Get it here.](
-- Second, and you may have figured this out for yourself already, Geographies of Success are not immutable. As technologies evolve, the lists of winners and losers shift with them. Advances in harnessing water and wind eroded what made Egypt special into history, providing room for a new slate of major powers. The Industrial Revolution reduced Spain to a backwater, while heralding the beginning of the English Imperium. The coming global Disorder and demographic collapse will do more than condemn a multitude of countries to the past. It will herald the rise of others. Third, shifting the parameters of the possible impacts… pretty much everything. Our globalized world is, well, global. A globalized world has one economic geography: the geography of the whole. Regardless of trade or product, nearly every process crosses at least one international border. Some of the more complex cross thousands. In the world we are (d)evolving into, that is relentlessly unwise. A deglobalized world doesn’t simply have a different economic geography, it has thousands of different and separate geographies. Economically speaking, the whole was stronger for the inclusion of all its parts. It is where we have gotten our wealth and pace of improvement and speed. Now the parts will be weaker for their separation. Fourth, not only despite the global churn and degradation, but also in many cases because of it, the United States will largely escape the carnage to come.

End of a Golden Age That probably triggered your BS detector. How can I assert that the United States will waltz through something this tumultuous? What with its ever-rising economic inequality, ever-fraying social fabric, and ever-more bitter and self-destructive political scene? I understand the reflexive disbelief. I grew up during the age of duck-and-cover. I find it galling that issues such as “safe spaces” in colleges devoid of divergent viewpoints, transgender bathroom policy, and vaccine benefits have even crossed into the proverbial town square… Much less all but crowded-out issues such as nuclear proliferation or America’s place in the world. Sometimes it feels as though American policy is pasted together from the random thoughts of the four-year-old product of a biker rally tryst between Bernie Sanders and Marjorie Taylor Greene. My answer? That’s easy: it isn’t about them. It has never been about them. And by “them” I don’t simply mean the unfettered wackadoos of contemporary America’s radicalized Left and Right. I mean America’s political players in general. The 2020s are not the first time the United States has gone through a complete restructuring of its political system. This is round seven for those of you with minds of historical bents. [Featured: My exclusive trading method could make all your financial worries go away - Jeff Clark]( Americans survived and thrived before because their geography is insulated from, while their demographic profile is starkly younger than, the bulk of the world. They will survive and thrive now and into the future for similar reasons. America’s strengths allow her debates to be petty, while those debates barely affect her strengths. Perhaps the oddest thing of our soon-to-be present is that while the Americans revel in their petty, internal squabbles, they will barely notice that elsewhere the world is ending!!! Lights will flicker and go dark. Famine’s leathery claws will dig deep and hold tight. Access to the inputs – financial and material and labor – that define the modern world will cease existing in sufficient quantity to make modernity possible. The story will be different everywhere, but the overarching theme will be unmistakable. The last 75 years long will be remembered as a golden age… And one that didn’t last nearly long enough at that.

Right on the money. I’ve worked in the nuclear industry for over 50 years – and I’m still working – so I know a lot about this business. What is also fundamentally true is that there are very, very few publicly traded companies left in the uranium space. There were over 500 companies at the peak of the last boom. Now, there are less than 50… a 90% drop. Nuclear power is the only solution to the world's energy woes. Despite the hype belched out daily by western media outlets, wind and solar farms meet only a tiny fraction of electricity demand and will do so for at least the next 20 years. Hydroelectric is by far the largest renewable supply (lumped in with wind and solar to make the renewables picture look rosy). And even that is threatened by low water levels in dams around the world. Even renewables-crazed California has voted to keep Diablo Canyon open to keep the lights on following an about-turn by their governor Gavin Newsom and a few blackouts that voters really don’t like much. It is an inescapable fact that all around the world, from Japan to the U.K. to South Korea, and even to the oil- and gas-rich United Arab Emirates, there is a strong movement to build large nuclear power plants. And they only operate on one fuel, and that is uranium. Even the nuclear-averse EU has now included nuclear in their “taxonomy,” which allows the big European money to invest in nuclear. Great article and pleased someone out there understands what is about to happen. – Malcolm R. I’d like to add a comment to today’s article on nuclear power plants. The U.S. Navy’s ships, submarines, and aircraft carriers have used nuclear-powered engines since the 1950s – safely. Also, the U.S. government routinely sends large trucks hauling spent fuel across the country to Idaho for burial – safely. Those facts seem never to enter public discussions on the efficacy of nuclear power. (Unfortunately, Jane Fonda and President Carter effectively biased the public against nuclear power long ago.) While nuclear power plants are expensive to build, they are very safe, clean, and economical to operate. And new designs allow for better, more complete use of the nuclear fuel. – Judith G. I think with the development of small nuclear plants that are somewhat portable, and with the development of safer nuclear heating processes, we stand a good chance in the future to make a clean break from our dependence upon carbon-based fuels. Of course, it is going to take time to develop and build these new machines. It’s also going to take time to convince the public that there really isn’t much other choice. So looking out in the future 10 to 15 years, we come to that magical year of 2035… when all the world will be wonderful again. – George M. Small, modular nuclear reactors are being designed and built, which can be connected to replace coal. However, the regulatory process takes 5 to 10 years. But it will happen. The greens of the world will have to wake up and see we have few alternatives. – Hyman D. I, too, was interested in nuclear energy until I saw how the current plant they are building in Georgia is running billions over cost and years behind schedule. I am interested in the joint venture between Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, investing in smaller nuclear power plants that are modeled off the current nuclear-powered submarines. But they are a private venture at this time. – Doug D. I think her [Nomi’s] concept of the nuclear revival is right on time. Plant startups and construction have started as well.
