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.

I like the idea but it is stupidly wasteful. Build a heater and place it under any desk with a blanket on top. The heater should not be built into the table so it is moveable to where you need it.

nah, it's not the same.

Then you have a no go area underneath your cozy table. Build it into the table and then you have full reign. Stretch out your legs, get drunk, have a foot fight with somebody. You'll never kick it over built in.
