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

This just brings the peak closer. Watch Permian closely within the next 5 years. Of course you can cook shale kerogen and oil sands with nuke and renewable, but the product price is eyewatering and the volume not there. The party is ending.
