Jane Goodall has a very simple and realistic (but not easy) framework for recovering from the anthropocene extinction:
1. Eliminate poverty worldwide (this is essential because desperately poor people will not let environmental concerns keep them from basic survival)
2. Radically reduce resource consumption by rich nations and individuals
3. Eliminate government corruption
4. Stop human population increase
Obviously achieving this will require upending many power structures and confronting many deficiencies of human nature. But when you see it laid out like that, it seems obvious that is task ahead of us.
