We are rapidly heading towards collapse:
- Global temperatures - CO2 production has led to the fact that since records began in 1880, nineteen of the twenty hottest years have occured since 2000[1].
- Biodiversity loss and deforestation via over farming and agriculture.
- Ocean acidification
- Ozone depletion
- Microplastics via overconsumption.
- the nitrogen cycle
- the phosphorus cycle
These issues combined are accelerating us towards collapse.
