    What do you think we can learn from the collapse of these once great civilisations?

      Inbreeding and corruption, in my opinion.

      Move on to the neighboring civilization and continue decimating resources there

      We can learn that no society is 'too great to fail'; we should take the threats of climate change seriously and not assume that the challenges we face tomorrow will be overcome the same way as in the past.

      Ancient Apocalypse (2001).
      Well outdated by 20 years of additional research.

    The Mayans did not “disappear” as stated. They left the urban areas and scattered during the drought era but they and the their culture are still alive today!

    there were plenty of instances in 20th century when people "ate their children" too. Over the course of human history, many thousands of years, we ought to have gotten past that and found some way to assure food security for everyone.

    Some civilizations have collapsed due to agricultural practices and environmental changes. Read 'Topsoil and Civilization' by Carter and Dale for some of the examples from history.

    Drought. Lack of food and water. Not enough to go around.

      Over population. Too many "pigs in the pens". Too many pigs = excess filth, consumption of resources, depletion of resources, disease, fighting and eventual destruction. climate change occurs anyway: 'tis why the dinosaurs are extinct.

    • @KernowekTim
      @KernowekTim 11 дней назад

      Nooooo. Trump is only in office for a few years, not hundreds and thousands of them. We as a species are literally shagging ourselves into extinction. If not for that we would not pollute as we do, because there would be less need and demand on resources. The fulrum has tipped off balance because there are too many people. Simple and obvious as that. If you want to point at politics, point at Xi's China.

      Plenty of fish to eat then. Lobsters and prawns, too! Lots of salt to preserve it for a "rainy day". Problem solved 😊👍👍
