Over the past year, books like Hunger Games have started to feel unsettlingly prescient. But perhaps we can skip that dystopia altogether and instead careen directly toward the Mad Max world.
If you haven't yet, you should read Octavia Butler's Parable series, it's a far more realistic take and she was very prophetic about certain things.
But all the news is fascist billionaire PR now
There's a really easy way to fix that... :)
Stop consuming it?
kinda always has been
Lots of things should be front page news but aren't. I think it's to keep people placid, they tend to get very angry when you try to show them there's nothing anyone can do now and we're not going to survive the century.
90% of earths topsoil is at risk of depletion by 2050
Global freshwater demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030
Global human population has surpassed Earth’s sustainable carrying capacity.
Global carbon emissions are still rising
The arctic sea ice extent is declining rapidly and we're likely headed into a Blue Ocean Event later this year, and potentially a double BOE depending on how the El Nino and summer in the southern hemisphere go.
The world is likely to exceed a key global warming target soon but the earths alebedo with the declining sea ice and lack of cloud cover will impact these numbers massively and isn't being predicted for, which means that 4.5c above the baseline by 2060 is now possible.
