How many animals (both farm and wildlife) died? How was the environment damaged, did carrying capacity of the region diminish?

We need to describe the consequences of these events in greater detail than just human deaths.

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.
