 The consequences of the collapse of empires were local. Human societies were unaffected elsewhere.

 So how do we stop the damage, and avoid collapse? [Some](http://www.lifeworth.com/deepadaptation.pdf) believe that [we can’t](https://medium.com/s/futurehuman/survival-of-the-richest-9ef6cddd0cc1) – that it’s already [too late](https://dark-mountain.net/about/manifesto/). If it is too late to prevent collapse, then maybe our actions can push back that collapse so that we can put in place local, resilient infrastructure and gain relevant skills that will mean more of us will survive. But even if this is wishful thinking, we can do things that are more interesting and fulfilling than the crushing tedium of corporate work, consumerism and celebrity. So how do we stop the damage, and avoid collapse?
