bobbinwales, "antigrowth" ( degrowth) and 'overshoot' - all taboo -would NEVER be uttered by any 'Leader'...
"All paths out of overshoot (genuine solutions) involve a contraction of the species and a decline of material/energy throughput. There are no exceptions"
... no fantasy, 'always annual GDP growth', take that HARD kick in our 'entitled' - at least constant/ preferably always rising - Standard of Living expectations (cf GDP ) ... anathema to all politicians, their perceived ultimate obscenity.
Wexler is at least more honest than Boris, and more specific than Greta,but has no realistic solution, AND even he does not even mention the biggest problem - mining fossil fuels, which supply 85% of the energy the world uses, is just too expensive now to sustain the wild, cheap ride we had on coal and *especially* oil to sustain our current civilizational profligacy; and then we have that unknown scale of the real extent of debt ( they don't, honestly, know ).
