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.

Meanwhile in coastal Southern California: it’s 17C and tonight the restaurants have their outdoor gas-burning heating on. For lulz, or is it just naïveté, or foolishness, or recklessness? On the other side of the mountains they reached 35C and the rest of the state is under a heatwave. “I can’t even.”
(And some have flames inside narrow vertical tubes, again for the fun of it. As if the CO2 emergency was something happening elsewhere.)
