re: #101 ~Fianna
We’ve had a couple… look at what the Plague did in Europe in the 14th c or the regression in society after the fall of Rome.
We’ve managed to outsmart our environment long enough and well enough that we’ve distributed in a way that it would be hard to kill us all at once but we suffer the consequences when we lose the ability to control the environment and store and distribute food widely.
The Black Death was ultimately rather beneficial to Europe, but it left the land intact.
