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?
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?
You’d be mistaken in thinking that everywhere will collapse at the same time. More than likely there are still “good” places to flee to. As the future collapse drags on they get fewer and fewer and less and less safe. But even just being “over there” is better than “here” in many cases.
I’m in the good place. No joke. I’m in Michigan. People will flee here
I agree but if a freak winter storm comes in, you may have to flee south temporarily. That’s my point.
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.
With a sharp steel “dick.”
It’s cute how you think things will be alive.
“humanity’s future in balance” and “humanity’s future hangs in the balance” don’t mean the same thing
Yea that title is ass.

Then to be fair we should be backdating the fines for heavy polluters to when it first started, so the UK, Canada and the US pay our fair share of the cost.
Only if we also backdate the fines and extend them to the countries who sell the most petroleum so Saudi Arabia and Russia can help foot the bill :)
We could also buy a unicorn for everyone on earth since we are giving examples of things that will never happen

Do you want yellow jacket protests? Because that’s how you get yellow jacket protests.
Seriously though… it might not have been so extreme had macron not had his neoliberal head up his own ass and actually made the transition possible for rural drivers.
Hmm, sounds like Big Science is trying to sell more Earth.
“Balance” HA! You’re late to picture. It’s easily too late 2030 Has been my call for over a decade now. Everyone says I’m crazy. I know you’re ignorant. You think this is an accident. This is conducted intentionally by folks and you can’t see what is obvious because they won’t STFU about everything else. You’re a sucker for believing fucking anything. Don’t believe me. Figure it out for yourself. Stop believing anything. It’s fucking obvious when you discard the flash of the neon sign.
