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.

Cruise ships AND cars are bad.

[–] fidodo@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

But imagine you give up your car for the environment and your impact is less than a millionth of a single cruise ship. What's the fucking point if we can't stop the big fuckers?
