Me too, but I also believe that collapse is a fundamental part of the natural cycles that govern everything in the universe. It’s hubris to think humans can exempt themselves from this natural system, and the belief that we can is a large driver of why we find ourselves here.

We can’t just skip collapse, nor can avoid it. Embrace its coming and celebrate what will grow from it.

Respectfully, yes.

If it’s that local of an issue, why not just go around with a clipboard and piece of paper and talk to your neighbours about it? Modern technology isn’t always the solution, sometimes the tried and true methods are still valid for a reason.
