It’s a country with nobody in charge. After decades of dictatorships and natural disasters, the capital of Port-au-Prince is now ruled by criminal gangs. Every day, at least 18 acts of extreme violence take place. EL PAÍS chronicles a week in a hell from which everyone wants to flee

Thank you for posting this. I had no idea. What an absolutely gut-wrenching horror.

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.
