@glowl @nev @chu Rather than accept sudden collapse as inevitable, it's past time to start preparing for gradual deindustrialization and get familiar with composting toilets. Just because we're going to lose a lot of modern things doesn't mean everything just reverts back to all the same state of a few hundred years ago.

@chris__martin @glowl @nev @chu for one, we no longer have the predictable, cold climate of 250y ago.

@chris__martin @nev @chu yeah, definitely this :)
have written "if it comes to this there would be" exactly because of what you wrote.
i think we are able to avert the worst, but for big cities there are just to many people without knowledge and no interest in learning (right now) at least the basics about how to use a compost toilet or similar things. so there probably would be at least one outbreak in the beginning until people take "how to shit compost" lessons.
