people globally deciding to have fewer and fewer children due to rapidly deteriorating standards of living paired with rising inequality (no one will be able to afford kids let alone a home or healthcare)
perpetual multi-crises and climate catastrophes disrupting supply chains and halting economic growth/consumption
global economic collapse due to war, mass refugee migration, reshaping of national borders in a race to extract dwindling reserves of precious minerals and ore, also resulting in plummeting per capita consumption and/or birthrate
all of the above in a self-reinforcing feedback loop

.... fuck, this was supposed to be the hopeful scenario. smh, we live in interesting times.

Our only real hope is the US gets it's head out of its own asshole and pitches in. Same with China too. But every other country on the planet has some sort of plan except those two. (And some others but don't effect imtje globe as much)

People also need to stop believing in a god and shit. You show some Looney live and in person real time information on climate change and they would say "yeah idk. Seems pretty fake and just a cash grab"

We as a species, as a whole, deserve everything we are getting.
