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.

MODERATORS
The article gives me zero reasons for why I should be more worried than I already am. Infact I don't even understand what was the point of all that.
The article recommends collective action. Join a group of people passionate, read terrified, and actively working to make a difference. Find a local group and soothe you're anxiety with the knowledge you're doing what you can. Also feel free to read How to Blow Up a Pipeline if you're feeling spicy.
Probably to make people recoil and not be alarmed.
