"North Atlantic sea surface temperature anomalies are going vertical again. And yes, I needed to extend the y-axis."(lemmy.world)

If you’re implying that we should look at China’s emissions – China’s cumulative and per capita emissions are lower than the US. China is basically on par with the EU in terms of per capita emissions, so if anyone has some catching up to do it’s the US with 2x (twice!) as much emissions per capita.

If that’s not your point, then that’s my bad – I see way too many people try to shift blame onto China in these conversations.

Also consider that the majority of the world has offloaded the majority of their manufacturing to China in that same timeframe, so it’s not even a fair comparison to start with.

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.
