Fold – Who the Hell Are We?

Voiced by late authors Michael C Ruppert & Douglas Adams, Who the Hell Are We? confronts the devastating consequences of failing to prioritise a sustainable existence

There’s no longer any doubt that ‘the world is beginning to run out of hydrocarbon energy’ — the very resource that underpins our entire civilisation. Driven by the overconsumption of fossil fuels, we are simultaneously facing the greatest ecological crisis of our epoch. As Douglas Adams muses in the track’s breakdown section, ‘we don’t have to save the world, the world is big enough to look after itself. What we need to be concerned about is whether or not the world we live in will be capable of sustaining us in it.’

“Some have known about the twin challenges of climate change and ‘peak fossil fuels’ for a long time but have been unable to overcome the fossil fuel industry’s campaign of obfuscation & misinformation. We wanted both to educate a little and convey a sense of urgency on this track in order to stir people into thoughtful action. Although the situation is dire, we believe there is still time if we act unilaterally & immediately.”
