Were in deep, deep doo-doo, said Suzuki Saturday, speaking at an Extinction Rebellion protest on Vancouver Island. This is what were come to. The next stage after this, there are going to be pipelines blown up if our leaders dont pay attention to whats going on.
Suzuki, reached by the National Post on Monday, said violence within the environmental movement is already happening, although he identified police actions against anti-logging protesters and anti-gas pipeline protesters as the culprits.
Asked whether or not he would support the bombing of pipelines, Suzuki said, Of course not.

I find it rather unlikely that civilization will be collapsing in 2 or 3 decades.
