20 years ago was the time for Nations and MegaCorps to agree on a ‘managed decline’ strategy.

But they could not even agree on that, so now we get the chaos timeline.

…the World 3 model is holding up great.

We are right now at the peak of industrial output, going by the latest refactoring of it.

Everything gets worse from here on out, quality of life, food production/prices climate instability, climate migrants, authoritarianism, prejudice and bigotry, fundamentalism and conspiricism…

… and that’s optimistic, assuming some flash point doesn’t spark WW3 or a thermonuclear obliteration.

On the bright side, maybe in 100 years the flowers will bloom beautifully where the Thwaites Glacier once was.
