Lowest common denominator to solve all these problems is either
1. Invent super cheap and scalable energy solution. Like Fusion. We could pretty much do whatever climate solution we want.
2. MMT to achieve (1) and a combination of one of:
a). Viable Climate solutions which are currently "costly" and if necessary UBI so labour and time could be freed up to implement those solutions.
b). Massively subsidize nationalized AI industry to crash the cost of implementation of said climate solutions.
- adrianN 2y agoThere is no reason to believe that fusion is cheap.
- baq 2y agoFusion is cheap if you price in externalties of fossil fuels. Nobody does that because it's political and economical suicide... unless everybody does that at the same time. We need a good proper crisis for this.
- adrianN 2y agoLet me be more precise: There is no reason to believe that fusion is cheaper than fission and fission is not competitive with renewables.
