BS “study” back during the era when any and all were predicting collapse due to over-population, running out of this or that resource, and NONE of that alarmist BS came true ...
the real danger is the total dependency on an extremely fragile, centralized Internet infrastructure ... should the Internet suddenly collapse, civilization as we know it will suddenly collapse ...
and it’s not that difficult to kill the Internet: simply destroy the dozen or so centers that house the top level DNS servers, centers which are NOT hardened facilities, not even close ... they rely completely on security through obscurity ...
... not only could a determined enemy surreptitiously launch simultaneous ground penetrations with the aim of reducing these centers to rubble, but any country with accurate ICBMs could destroy those centers remotely, and it wouldn’t even take nuclear capability if the missiles were accurate enough ... no need to bomb anything else, just those centers ...
those centers need to be in deep underground bunkers and guarded with military troops 24x7x365 ...
Our society may indeed collapse, but not “due to overexploitation of planetary resources.” That’s just environmentalist nonsense. The best book to read on this subject is the late Julian Simon’s “The Ultimate Resource”. The ultimate resource is human ingenuity.
Wow! What did you think when John Holdren became Obama’s Science Czar?
“And here I wasted 40 years building a nest egg.”
yep ... just think of all the booze, drugs, and call girls you could have had instead ... total wasted nest egg ...
These "Studies" show what the people who put together the inputs want them to show.
Essentially, the paper says: Do what I say, or die!
I had it and have the antibodies to prove it.

Can you provide one rational reason why I should be forced to submit to the “vaccine?”
Same methodology as “global warming.”
We're doomed by our own success.
Predictions are always true, so yikes.

FYI, Apple TV made, and starting in September will broadcast, a series based on the Foundation trilogy. Trailers are out, if you’re interested. I, personally, can’t wait - I just hope that they haven’t made it a PC piece of crap and thus ruined what should be a classic mini-series.
Oh, and we need our own Hari Seldon right now.
The return of the “Limits to Growth” BS. The author and his ideological allies were, even if not Communist sympathizers trying to destroy the West from within, at least technological illiterates. Technological R&D, combined with Capitalism, resolves ALL shortages, and usually quite quickly.
This “study” is abject nonsense, just as it was when written.
They also said we would be out of oil in 20 years.
As of 1972
Malthusian predictions are usually wrong. What is different about these predictions is that the Elites are now in a position to implement “final solutions” to resolve the doomsday predictions
If you can prove it, you are good!
Oh yes, I remember that prediction well!
Because my daily commute to work was 70 miles driving round trip.
They caused me unnecessary fear and consternation.
I am waiting for something to spike my life LOL but no such luck, nothing spiked since March 4th, 2021 when I received my 2nd shot of Moderna vaccine.
🤦
You should take the vaccine to show your total obedience to the state and the revolution.
“And here I wasted 40 years building a nest egg.”

BLM wants your nest egg... and with the help of democrats, they very well might get it too, despite whether or not society officially collapses. BLM has been saying explicitly that the property of white people need to be transferred to people of color. It doesn’t matter that you got up every morning for 40 years and invested legitimate effort and productivity, you don’t deserve what you have ‘earned’ because it was all due to white priviledge
