Gregory's Server@dave_von_s @FinalOverdrive @pezmico I’ve been reading up on the Bronze Age collapse lately. For, y’know, reasons.

@FinalOverdrive @dave_von_s @pezmico The Bronze Age collapse wasn’t, either, as I understand it. Whole generations just… leaving no-longer-livable cities behind.  @FinalOverdrive @dave_von_s @pezmico Then we’d better get good at urban food production on a pretty urgent timeline. Bonus, growing more plants will help cool cities down. Miami is probably doomed, though. @aprilfollies @dave_von_s @pezmico Yes and no. We won't know until it happens. Urban food production is already starting. @FinalOverdrive @dave_von_s @pezmico Yes, I’m involved in developing urban gardens in my city. It doesn’t scale to feeding numbers in the hundreds of thousands at the moment. What we have now are pilot projects. Basically we need to be doing All The Things to reduce the impact and prepare for it. The more we do now, the less bad we can make this inflection point in human history. |
@aprilfollies @dave_von_s @pezmico The scary thing is I don't think the collapse will be that dramatic.
