    Ravenous: Singapore Superstructure

    What would work in Singapore?

    We're all a bit locked down here! joelfirenze's "See A brief respite" in the srory section. What might work? Can we get off grid a bit? Should we try?

    I think that the way things are going in Singapore it may be best to get out of there sooner rather than later. The question is where will you go?

    I'm thinking that unless we can maintain an external infrastructure that can sustain us, I don't believe we'll be able to hold our population this high. We don't have a lot of hemispheric woes; we don't freeze in winter, after all. But with rising food prices and means of electricity generation becoming scarcer, either we'll need some drastic alternatives or socioeconomic factors will start driving down the population to what can actually be sustained. It's not in a family unit's best interests to bring another consumer into the unit, another mouth to feed, another patient to tend. They just can't afford it. Therefore the population will drop.

    I think we should invest more in researching solar energy, in trying to make it more energy-efficient than what science can provide now. Hell, if it comes down to it, I'd think that the one and only thing this nation can provide is brains. We are a zombie heaven, ahaha. Package the nation as a research centre, make us a nation focused on the advancement of USEFUL science. In other words make it more to the world's advantage to keep us around than not.

    Maybe you guys could investigate agreeing a long term bilateral food purchase contract with a partner country, like South Sudan? Only caveat: it'll need to be more advantageous to the partner country than some of the early prototype versions of such agreements in order to avoid local food security insurgencies like the one that kicked off in Senegal in 2016
