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.


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, high volume and low relevance posts.

A new study found that ocean acidification’s “boundary” was reached about five years ago. 60% of global waters have breached the limits for acidification.

A planetary boundary is the limit of the natural system to rebound without failing.

The study says the impacts are worse than previously thought.
