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 remember seeing a 1980s documentary about survivalists. They were running around in radiation suits, hunting deer.

Hah. If there's that much radiation you don't want to get radioactive dust on you, then you absolutely can't eat the deer.

There were prior waves, like back to the land.
