Many of Earth’s “vital signs” have hit record extremes, indicating that “the future of humanity hangs in the balance”, a group of the world’s most senior climate experts have said.
More and more scientists are now looking into the possibility of societal collapse, says the report, which assessed 35 vital signs in 2023 and found that 25 were worse than ever recorded, including carbon dioxide levels and human population. This indicates a “critical and unpredictable new phase of the climate crisis”, it says.
The temperature of Earth’s surface and oceans hit an all-time high, driven by record burning of fossil fuels, the report found. Human population is increasing at a rate of approximately 200,000 people a day and the number of cattle and sheep by 170,000 a day, all adding to record greenhouse gas emissions.
Yeah, I know. What the fuck am I supposed to do?
Even if it all turns to shit, there will likely be some people alive in the apocalyptic hellscape, and eventually we’re going to need to build communities that are able to grow their own food, take care of each other - completely doing away with capitalistic society. We’ll also need people to hunt down whatever billionaire psychopaths survive in their bunkers.
So might as well start now.
I hate these defeatist articles. This is the shit the rich want you to believe. They want you to shut the fuck up and keep buying trash from them.
I’m giving them less of my money. Fuck the rich.
It’s cute how you think things will be alive.
I don’t care at this point. Don’t have kids or if you have them already have go bags and plans. We’re fucked
Where are you going with go bags? Everyone else is going there too.
We’re not THAT fucked as to where we need go bags.
Everyone should have something like that. In any emergency you can grab it and leave the house and be prepared.
There’s a difference between an emergency and apocalyptic societal collapse.
What do you put in your bag?
