I’m pretty sure there’s no chance that people in aggregate are going to voluntarily reduce consumption - on the contrary, the billions in developing countries are moving toward the western lifestyle, and they’re not going to accept westerners trying to tell them not to. We have to work to make this lifestyle sustainable by making clean power, cement, steel, synthetic fuel, etc cheaper than the polluting alternatives, because hoping that we’ll reduce our way out of this is wishful thinking. We need to get to negative new carbon, not just less carbon.
