Balázs Stumpf-Bíró

Collapse Researcher

Will Hungary ever see cross-party, ideology-transcending agreement on how to prepare for climate change? How much time do we have left to get there? Here to reveal the truth is collapse researcher and environmental scientist Balázs Stumpf-Bíró. As co-founder of the Cassandra Program, he works every day to make the complex reality of our age’s “polycrisis” understandable and urgent. His research explores the great risks facing our civilisation - especially environmental shifts - and as the Hungarian voice of the Deep Adaptation movement, he emphasises not only physical survival, but also the mental, social, and community resilience we’ll need to face the future.
