Shall we play a game? While I think that Slate’s Apoca-matrix of end of the world options skews too heavily on the side of survivability, I may be too enthusiastically pessimistic due to my own engagement with the subject.
Follow the link to experiment with 144 apoc-a-variables, such as “China Unloads US Treasuries”, “December 12, 2012″, “Swine Flu” and “Ocean Acidification”. Personally I tend to go with “Megadrought”, “Climate Migration” and “Overpopulation”, but I’m a classic “too many people” apocalypticologist.
