Climate Collapse

The accelerating buildup of greenhouse gases has already pushed the climate past several critical tipping points—Arctic sea‑ice loss, permafrost thaw releasing methane, and the collapse of major ice sheets. These feedbacks drive rapid temperature rise, intensifying extreme weather, prolonged droughts, and shifting precipitation patterns that cripple agriculture and freshwater supplies. As crop yields fall and sea levels rise, food and water shortages ignite mass migrations and resource conflicts, overstretching governments and fracturing the international order. The resulting cascade of humanitarian crises, economic breakdown, and escalating wars erodes the resilience of modern civilization, ultimately leading to a systemic collapse that could end the world as we know it.
