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.

Yeah, picking up useful skills is a good one, no matter what happens. I've started gardening a bit, but most of my time is still taken up working what in the end is still a non essential bullshit job (when though I enjoy it most of the time). That need, that trap is what keeps all of the rest going. But I agree, we do what we can to minimize our impact and maybe Even have some positive influence.
