WHAT MAY CAUSE THE END OF OUR CIVILIZATION
Ecological Disaster
It’s sometimes easy to forget just how much we depend upon our
ecosystem to survive. A phenomenon termed “colony collapse disorder”,
where worker bees simply disappear from hives, could very possibly prove
a major disaster for world-wide food supplies, which depend upon these
bees to pollinate critical crops food-providing crops. In short, bitches bee crazy.
Other (less exciting) examples include things like pollution,
overfishing and deforestation; or pandemics among cultivated plants. As
our population grows and food shortages become more problematic, a
sudden disruption in a major source of food could result in mass
starvation, not to mention the associated fear and violence which could
be caused by such a disaster.
