Climate Collapse

Current trajectories show greenhouse‑gas emissions continuing to rise, pushing global temperatures beyond critical tipping points such as permafrost thaw, loss of Arctic sea‑ice and Amazon die‑back. Once these feedback loops are triggered, they release additional carbon and methane, accelerating warming in a self‑reinforcing cascade that could render large regions of the planet uninhabitable. The resulting extremes – mega‑droughts, sea‑level rise, collapse of agricultural systems and mass displacement – would overwhelm governments, spark resource wars and ultimately cause a global societal collapse. Unlike isolated events such as nuclear war or a rogue AI, climate disruption is already underway, making its catastrophic progression the most probable path to an end‑state for human civilization.
