Canada makes a belated apology for Celine Dion but millions nevertheless succumb to madness. In the chaos, nuclear weapons are released. Middlesborough is nuked early-on, but there is strong evidence suggesting the missiles originated from the Newcastle area. In the aftermath, society becomes divided chiefly between nomadic groups who incessantly sing 'Kum-by-yah' and hippie drum circles.

Well surprising as it might seem it's port and chemical industry infrastructure would make it a prime target, though some elements of the population wouldn't be missed. When I first arrived in Middlesbrough, I was excited that I was moving away from home to uni, but my thoughts quickly changed. Immediately as I stepped off the train i was greeted by hundreds of chavs in the station, making their little spit patterns on the floor, and generally trying to intimidate anyone who dared walk past them. Straight away they lunged at me like vultures, obviously seeing i was new student blood and asked ‘can i borra a fag n cani borra 10p for the bus to darlo’. I retaliated with ‘Well if your borrowing a cigarette when will you give it me back?" This seemed to confuse their under developed minds for a while before the abuse started. Then the weekend came. By this time I had realised there were very few normal people in 'boro. I waa thinking it can't be that bad. I was wrong, very wrong. I felt like i was featuring in Pirates of the Caribbean, it was all very scary, it was like they could all smell that you were new to the town, so they followed behind us all night scavenging. I feel sorry for anyone stuck in this place having to brave it all out. I even have felt sorry for the pigeons, who they seem to enjoy torturing, but if they ever stopped to think they would realise that pigeons are the same as them, hanging around town in flocks, flying at people, scavenging off people and eating scraps of food off the floor, carrying all kinds of disease and multiplying by the hundred!! You might want to visit and form your own opinion..

These people are having a go at "defeating Capitalism". But it's difficult for some of them to focus on this important aim, as there is some chatter going on in the background, which triggers their anxieties.
"You mean like the stench of the 90 million victims of Communism?"

I think another scenario is gradual annihilation by health and safety. "Hold the handrail at all times" says the tannoy as the child is dragged screaming into the end of the escalator.
Dumbing down of populations until people are unable to recognise danger for themselves.

The collapse of effectiveness of anti biotics due to over use ... some suggest this is the single issue that is likely to threaten humanity in the immediate future.
Common ailments suddenly wiping out huge swathes like the black death.
Happy thought.

Its all a bit depressing..not a positive thought sprinkled anywhere so I would like to think mankind is recognising the destruction of dear ole Mother Earth..that nations will unite and work to the common good That we will reverse the plastic poison, war will cease and rain will fall in drought stricken lands.... An impossible dream....

I'm not quite into the we are destroying earth arguement.
Our planet was around a long time before us and had ice ages and global warming. Long before we polluted anything.
I'm more of we are destroying mankind and animals instead.
I suspect the planet will out live both.
