Why do people keep reading dystopias as instruction books?
Your guess is as good as mine. Let's just hope that they didn't also see any copies of The Limits to Growth as well. It was a scientific report published in 1972 by a think-tank. Using computer models developed at MIT, the authors warned that continuing on business-as-usual population and consumption growth trajectories would likely lead to societal collapse within the next 100 years.
I don't know about you but I'm excited!
