This Most Needed
I would have many of us come out of cities. Probably not enough would come out, it would be better if more and more came out. But I mean for there to be simple primitive communities, not driving around to hunt (that is not sustainable!) but growing what they need enough for completely adequate subsistence, with natural farming ways (see Fukuoka) and not using equipment of farmers now. It would need to be where there is good soil and enough water. Other ways will use more resources and impact environments and wildlife far more.
Without remaining dependent, that's important
It is useless to try to save anything of civilization. That will not work. We can save some of us with departing to become independent from civilization with sustainable ways living in simplicity where anything needed for food and useful materials can be grown. There are places in nature which people can be very comfortable with, we really belong there more and do not need civilization as much, with that. Some are doing such and some will be making change that is needed. I hope for some being comfortable to join with me in moving to such where we can continue sustainably with what we will have growing to be enough for us.
Serious issues to us being here
Can't any see how seriously life in this world and civilization with it are going to be in serious trouble ahead, as everything is worsening? It would be going not as bad if people were no longer living in the ways they are dependent on civilization for while their demands are part of civilization still going on at the expense of the rest of the world, growing things on land away from cities and communities connected to them would be best.

When will climate change turn life in the U.S. upside down?
Intensifying extreme weather events and an insurance crisis are likely to cause significant economic and political disruption in the U.S. sometime in the next 15 years.Jeff Masters (Yale Climate Connections)
The need to live differently to continue in the world
There is the destructiveness to this world with taking everything for the needed resources while they still dwindle. All that is with civilization just as from animal agriculture has such a great environmental impact. We should see how we would be involved with what has almost no environmental impact, with simple living along with others away from civilization, with what we produce there ourselves, that we can do that.

Change for us becoming more needed
There is much harm coming from what is happening now with our society of civilization. It is extremely foolish to dismiss all the things happening. Now it is more needful to move to being more independent with being out from civilization. No one in government over us is better for us than our living independently even with us in good community.
What can continue are small sustainable communities
Medicine is derived from medicinal plants that had been used. So we need to be finding the medicinal herbs we can learn besides the few ones known to us. Communities for people are needed, with greater independence from anything that is from civilization. And those in such communities are to care for ones with physical needs among them, who are not to be neglected or to let anyone just die while we do nothing to aid or help them. We have things to learn, we will make things and they are what we need to know how to do. Other people have made such things, it is how to be independent. But in a community there can be such working together.
There may be hope with what we could see
Those of us with civilization have it so hard to imagine ourselves not having civilization for anything. But there were many more generations of humans who never had civilization, and thrived still without so much work, than all the generations with civilization. We can learn the ways to have what we can be comfortable with, making things that we can and growing things, without that dependence on civilization, that we would not be lost when civilization is lost.
Many should be separate for more sustainability that's needed
There is a tipping point we would be very close to. Cities are not sustainable and they will not just start being sustainable enough. Taking more than what this world continually provides can't go on. But staying with civilization is just trying to do that. Many should really depart from it and be growing all the things for themselves with those along with them.

Impact on natural environments should not be so much
All that is with civilization just as animal agriculture has such a great environmental impact.

Is not aĺl our modern world we live in all artificial? It is, deep within we know that. But we ourselves are not. We are natural.
Barbarism, meaning oxymoronic unto itself
‘Barbarism’
Is its meaning ‘absence of civilization’, or ‘extreme cruelty and brutality’? It’s the only word I can think of that is oxymoronic unto itself. Unlikely pre-civ humanways were as cruel and brutal en masse as rotating cohorts of civilized humans have been and continue to be. Barbarism’s commonly connoted meaning manifests not so much in wild humans, as in civilization’s enforced compliance with authoritarianism, power hierarchy, domination and exploitation. It’s not like groups of humans at war or whatever return indigenous. They get uber violent, rape pillage & plunder as civilized beings. After they get it out of their system, most return to civilization’s preferred norms, proud tax paying citizens. Civilization has barbarism built in.
On the edge of oblivion and all the world is Babylon, and all the love and everyone a ship of fools sailing on.
Resources are not enough to continue with how we have things
The use of resources from all of us in civilization is taking more than what this world continually provides. It is not rocket science to understand this can't go on. But staying with civilization is just trying to do that. Many should really depart from it and be growing all the things for themselves with those along with them. populationmatters.org/the-fact…

We need to be here in a different way
Efforts to save civilization may be noble, while still with it continuing there is more destruction and ruining this world. It might not continue so long, but many people, if they leave cities and anything of civilization to live on land in small groups growing all they can there to subsist that way separately, would continue on, while civilization will not go on past the catastrophic disasters. It could not last forever in this limited world as it gets ruined with the demands that always will come with civilization. The technology that ruins this world cannot be what can save it.

Theoretical Physicists Say 90% Chance of Societal Collapse Within Several Decades
Deforestation and rampant resource use is likely to trigger the 'irreversible collapse' of human civilization unless we rapidly change course.Nafeez Ahmed (VICE)
Living differently is needed
The government is not very responsive to the scientific community. There would be collapse from what can be seen now. We are in a world that is not unlimited, and we should not just be using everything. Using it like there is no tomorrow is what is happening still while voices of the concerned are yet disregarded. Resources dwindle and environments are being diminished, and there is a great rate of extinction of species, going on right now. Oceans are being depleted of fish and other creatures there.
