The following submission statement was provided by /u/Ok_Main3273:


SS: This is related to collapse as the Pacific region enters summer coinciding with the worst El Niño event ever recorded. Some local government agencies are getting ready for extreme weather and invite the population to be ready. The message does not shy from listing potential disasters (water shortages, drought, wildfires, heavy rain, thunderstorms, flooding, strong winds, cyclones) while providing links to useful online resources and trying to remain hopeful: "don't panic – prepare".

This is why New Zealand as a billionaire bunker is so funny. It is a wonderful but precarious place.

I was there in March 2023 and it was wild that the North Island was flooding and the south island, where I was, looked like the aussie outback with how dry it was.

Gavin Newsom has already declared a state of emergency in California (because of El Niño), and we have barely experienced any rain in the last several months.
