This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.


Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

Given that the climate models can’t even agree on the ECS, and we’re having an increasing amount of evidence pointing towards the ECS value being significantly higher than previously estimated, who is surprised, really?

We’re fucked. We’ve been fucked for a while now. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
