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.


RULES

1 - Remember the human

2 - Link posts should come from a reputable source

4 - No low effort posts.

Just tell me what's going on. I know about the movie "The Day After Tomorrow," I don't need to see how you went diving somewhere affected by this, etc. I learned more from like three paragraphs of this article than I did from watching you tell me that the AMOC is an ocean current, important, and in danger in various different ways for several minutes.

Thank you! This is perfect. I wish I had kept track of when I started reading, because I'd want to make the point that it took time comparable to how long it takes to watch this video that contains like 3% of the information, but in any case thank you.

As a mod I agree that videos are low quality content by default.
