I’m an environmental economist with a tech business working on climate issues. I use HN for its front page which I treat like a newspaper. I’m always surprised by the number of climate-related articles on the HN front page and the often excellent debate on the community boards, which to me indicates a growing concern generally about climate issues.
I’d like to point out that the debate is slowly moving on in the climate world, from what to do, to how to manage civilizational collapse.
This talk at Cambridge Uni will give an insight into this terrifying discussion:

For what it’s worth, I don’t have an opinion on what will happen; how can anyone within a complex system? But I do think proper scenario planning which factors in collapse as one scenario is necessary.
