The self feeding cycle we have now is: science advances -> more energy production -> higher gdp -> more environment destruction + population growth. The solutions proposed so far is to produce more, do more science, create more green jobs etc. we all know that this doing “more” won’t work but we are scared to lose our jobs or funding etc. So we have these pseudo intellectual-socio-scientific discourse trying to “solve” the problem but all the while we are just digging our graves deeper. To fix the problem we just need to rip that bandaid quickly and ruthlessly. This will cause economies to fall, governments to fail and wars to be waged. Good luck getting this through - the proponents already know all this, they are just making money while the sun shines organizing conferences and marketing their pet funding projects.
