I’ve been following the conversation and science about the collapse, and it seems to me like there are more and more people in unrelated communities that seem to be accepting the fact that the way we currently live is unsustainable and will lead to an eventual collapse. I feel like even a couple of months ago, if anyone posted a comment here on Lemmy that mentioned collapse, they’d be laughed out of the room. Now, however, I am constantly seeing comments alluding to it. So what are your thoughts? Are more people starting to take it more seriously?

    For first world nations we won’t see anything substantial for decades at least.

      Apart from rising costs, rising cost of living, unaffordable insurance, storms, major weather events. Loss of homes, loss of livelihood, loss of stability.

      I agree, it will take a bit longer to get to society wide boiling point. Some people will be hot first, due to luck of location or because they love in areas more prone to disasters. However, more and more people will become affected.

        And insurance companies already pulling out of high risk areas!
