Carbon offsets fail to cut global heating due to ‘intractable’ systemic problems, study says
Turns out magic credits dont do shit. The only thing we can do at this point is degrowth. Which makes all the capitalist piggies gasp.
Unsure if it's so much as degrowth but to alter our approach. Quite trying to scale up 1800 and 1900s tech and science and modernize our society and infrastructure. Creating loop systems rather than coal power and other poor energy sources.
The poor shareholders and CEOs. My heart goes out to them :(
Well yeah any potential solution is going to mean reduced potential profit, which you could describe as degrowth, but that would be the worst possible way to describe it.
The reason why we haven't gotten anywhere with carbon reduction is because wealthy people block any efforts.
Telling them that degrowth is the solution is unlikely to motivate them.
Thats okay, its not supposed to motivate them. Their power needs to be removed. They clearly cannot govern the world responsibly.
