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.

Guys, please take some time to read and reflect this a bit, you dont have to, but it would be cool. So, imo, it isnt too late. Yes, everything is pretty fucked up, got you. But, try to avoid the doomish news and look for the things that are happening at the same time. For example, renawble energies are soaring World-wide and thats fucking amazing! Im trying to say that theres a lot of positive developments aswell. Try to look for those changes near you, i hope there are some. Time is becomming more of an issue, its up to you to lean back and enjoy the beauty thats left, i wont judge you since i know it can be frightening and exhausting to think about the whole Situation while making ends meet. But you said you still see beauty, i hope you chose to defend it. Because, this might be the best/last (perspective) time to do so. There are lots of ways to this. Education, connecting, whatever. Try not to be distracted, divided, we know the cause, have the data. Those in charge led to this and priorities arent switching fast enough for the best of us. And a lot of people are feeling like you and me. societal change has always been a story of anger, unrest and connection. I see some parts of history repeating, but i dont see why we should forget the parts that helped human develop.
Tldr, together ape strong :o
