With worrying global trends like climate change, pollution, increasingly divided or radical governments, economic woes, misinformation and disinformation everywhere, dangerous health crises and so on, what do you think - how much time do we have before “it all comes crashing down”? What will end life or our way of life as we know it first?

Or do you think we’ll make it? If so, how?

    Two failed harvests. That’s what it takes to strip away the thin varnish of civilisation.

    Considering the global integration of the world today, in that case much of the effects can be temporarily cushioned by spending lots of money, thereby letting the ones without money starve. Either way, it won’t be pretty.

    At some point, even money can’t help anymore, because you can’t eat it. If there is no food, there is no food.
