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.

According to data from climate change institute we have the highest change in temperature this year, 1.3°C above 1979-2000 average (1.98°C above pre-industrial). This is only beaten by the record holding 1.99°C above pre-industrial from Feb. 28, 2016.

Will we hit new record soon?

E: fucked up the date, was meant to be Nov 17th. Nov 18th broke the record with 2.0°C.
