Sincerely, do not read this if your mental stability is tenuous. Basically details the numerous factors, environmental and otherwise, that are all pointing to societal collapse by the 2040s. I could barely get through it without feeling nauseous. There's some minor liberalism regarding China but it's more of a footnote than major focus.

    The most horrifying aspect of the whole ocean side of climate change and eco-catastrophe to me is the plankton. They're dying en masse due to ocean acidification and they are all but the lowest life form on the food chain for vast swathes of the ocean. Similar to bees for land, when the plankton goes, the dominoes of biodiversity collapse will start falling in earnest.
