My approach on the subject for what is worth is an accelerated but rational build out combined with a manageable degrowth effort. A Green New deal is a joke. Dramatic degrowth is also a joke. The status quo is killing us. Since what will happen will be both rational and irrational plus above my pay scale I recommend an individual and local response in a orientation to a decline process. This decline process has an ever present collpase possibility both regional and global. Naturally the environment and climate have been damaged beyond human restoration but local restorations can make a big difference in places.
