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 was serious, I'm sorry if I came across as rude.
Thank you for sharing this sad news. The reason I asked is that I live in Europe as well, and if things are this severe in Central Europe, than pretty soon the shitshow will come for the rest of us as well. Luckily birds and insects are still going strong here in western parts of Norway, for now that is. Still we're seeing more jellyfish in the fjords and less fish than before. We're also experiencing more ticks than earlier years. Things are looking bleak indeed.
Hello neighbor. I'll be vacationing in the Haugesund area this year.
Things are slightly better in Southern Germany than Northern, and Eastern Germany is declining slower still. The good part is that it's partly reversible if you restructure agricultural landscapes. Though migrating birds cover a large area, where isolated national policies don't help that much.
Hi there, if you like hiking you're in for a treat, just remember to pack your rain gear and prep for cool/cold weather. I live further north in the Molde area and funnily enough my neighbours are from Kiel and they left to get away from the crowdy area. Personaly I like it best in the southern parts of Germany and have been quite a lot in the Stuttgart, München and Ingolstadt area. Used to visit the Christmas market in Stuttgart before Covid, it was amazing.
Thanks! Give me a ring when you're in Munich again.
Will do, ditto if you're ever around Molde.
