====== The Predicament ======

- Retrofitting suburbia and adapting in situ are necessary.
- It's recommended to start small and slow.

What Can I Do?

The future is quickly approaching, and there are several interconnected issues threatening the stability and existence of global industrial civilization, including:

  * Climate change
  * Overpopulation
  * Species loss
  * Resource depletion
  * Financial crisis
  * Social media
  * Acidification of the oceans
  * Topsoil erosion
