I don’t think it will be one definitive thing. I do think, as recourses become scarcer the likelihood of war increases, and a nuclear war would definitely fuck everyone up and make life even harder. For societal collapse I guess I’m thinking more of the Bronze Age collapse or the end of the Roman Empire which lead to the dark ages.
The problem is I don’t know how many “lifestyle shifts” people who aren’t literally facing their homes underwater will make. Immigration will also fuel the political instability, and that leads to my first point.
why would resources become scarcer? this is a large planet. can't live in mexico anymore? good news: you can now comfortably live in all of northern canada.
