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.

My local gardening groups are full of posts for failed or unusual crops. Tomatoes not turning red, peppers wrinkling. I've lost a lot out of my garden too, it's alarming but I've been expecting this since 2017.
Culturally most people are only complaining about the heat, memes and jokes, the whatnot.
I'm not clear on how many people understand how serious this is. It still feels like people are largely business as usual.
