A super read. Wild times indeed. Of course, the Anthropocene itself is already quite improbable and we should bear this in mind, with regard to Collapse, when considering the improbability of avoiding the traps so described in the article.

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.
