The year 2018 is coming to a close, and it’s time once again to take a survey of Kollapsniks to see what their predictions are and their attitudes regarding Collapse as we move into 2019 and beyond.

These things change from year to year as Collapse progresses, just anecdotally based on my observations more people are becoming “Collapse Aware”, and those who were already Collapse Aware are becoming more pessimistic. However, without some data and numbers, it’s hard to pinpoint the general attitudes and zeitgeist in the Collapse Community. This survey is designed to get some of those numbers.
This statistical gathering expedition is considerably detailed, more so than any survey I have done before with the possible exception of the Human Extinction Survey I did a couple of years ago. It covers a wider range of topics than that one did though, and has more Demographic Questions to try and get a better handle on the overall demographics of the Collapse Community. One topic it does NOT cover in that deep detail (although there is some) is Economic aspects of Collapse. This because I am working on a survey dedicated to this topic by itself, since it is my major focus as a Collapse Writer and Pundit. I should have that survey ready to launch sometime in January of 2019.
Assuming we get enough respondents, I’ll post prelminary results Sunday for the Diner Sunday Brunch article and end of year re-cap. I’ll keep the survey open though through January since we generally tend to get responses on these things trickling in for quite some time.
As usual, in all likelihood I forgot to ask some question that is burning in your mind about Collapse or I forgot to provide a satisfatory enough answer for some question that actually IS on the survey. I did put out the request for suggestions though Inside the Diner, but I didn’t get a whole lot of help there.
All the questions on the survey are Optional, you don’t have to answer a question if you don’t want to but still want to fill out some of the survey. The responses are anonymous, I’m not collecting IP addys or anything like that. There is no financial benefit to me for this survey, or any cost to you to take it except in your time. I estmate it will take anywhere from 20-40 minutes to fill out, depending how long you ponder on a question.
Please pass on a Link to the survey to your friends or on websites you participate on, or on your Blog if you run one. The bigger the Sample Size we get, the more statistically significant the results become.
