Collapse

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.

Someone who is an idiot and ignores reality isnt someone you should listen to.

Two years until there is an energy crisis. If there weren't the vaccine parts, I would take him serious and be worried.

Look at his sources, and make up your mind.

In terms of per capita and especially net energy per capita world we are already in a crisis.

That tight resources are a flash in a pan is long known.
