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

3 - All opinions are allowed but discussion must be in good faith.

4 - No low effort posts.

Always good to remember that both coal and uranium reserves are finite.

Well, ye, that's one of the main talking points in the article. Another one of is the waste problem, of which coal power produces almost a million x more!

It'd have to be pretty long to get all the way to a conclusion that meaningless.
