George Tsakraklides is a bestselling Substack writer, scientist, researcher and author of several titles exploring the broader context behind civilizational collapse and humanity’s self-destruction. Approaching this topic through multiple lenses, he draws connections between biology, ecology, anthropology, philosophy, cognitive psychology, and economics and has appeared on various media outlets and at conferences exploring the environmental and civilizational polycrisis.
With degrees in molecular biology, chemistry, food science and earth sciences, he spent decades in the corporate world of for-profit social research, data analytics, consumer marketing, and the evil world of advertising optimization. Having worked for the world’s biggest multinational corporations, he became an expert in brand strategy and consumer marketing and gained a deep understanding of the inner workings of the most profit-driven and exploitative forces in society. After two decades in this business and suffering the impact of working in this toxic industry, he became a polycrisis author specializing on exposing the tragic failures of civilization that repeat like clockwork throughout history.
He lives in Greece, where he tends to a conservation garden created around a 2,500-year-old Greek fortification structure.
