No, no, no, we're asking a certain economic benefit at the expense of reasonable steps towards it - not even too hard steps, the COVID shock has shown the possibilities. Of course I can guarantee the humans will be better off - as in, for example, better air is better - but your guarantee (as in, proof it can't be done without it) of serious, perhaps permanent hardship is pure illusion with no justification at all.

There's a good argument to be made that the current geopolitical instabilities would never have happened without the collective shock of Covid to everyone's psyches. No event was more disruptive in the past few decades than Covid. It's unimaginable to call that "not even too hard".
