The Reddit thread seems to be largely given over to speculation about the complete collapse of society globally which is, in my opinion, getting just a little bit carried away and anyway not really informative.
- beebs93 5y agoYeah, I noticed that a bit, too. I originally meant the megathread post itself. I try not to read too many comments in such threads on Reddit; regardless of the topic ;)
- deanCommie 5y agoI mean yes, but when your province experiences over a 4 month period: * Record heat wave * Record forest fires * Record rainfall * Tornadoes for the first time in history * And now record flooding It's hard not to feel a little apocalyptic. Especially while most of the people in charge and seemingly 60% of the voters still want to hand-wave these away as one-offs, and unusual, ignoring the trend or the density of unusual/record event.
- emodendroket 5y agoI think things can get a lot worse without portending "Mad Max"-style scenarios.
