Thank you for this clear and readable assessment of our global predicament. I wish I could share your confidence that it’s not too late, that a consensual “soft landing” from the endless growth paradigm is possible. But I see no possibility of this happening, given our innate limitations as a species. As Bob Dylan once said, “Most People don’t do what they believe in; they just do what’s most convenient, then they repent.” This could well be our epitaph!
