How do we solve climatechange? According to redditors with degrowth, socialism and fedposting

/r/climatechange (a.k.a. Collapse light) has some ideas

Stop having a economic system where the default is growth for growths sake

This; the road starts here. IMO it's exactly why we won't achieve it by choice. We will achieve it via collapse though, I'm certain.

Collapse is becoming the secular version of the Rapture lmao.

Mexico is an example of slow GDP growth but measurable improvements in many people's lives.

How can we pressure the government? All I can think of are like protests.

i would not be surprised to see eco-terrorists by the end of this decade

and frankly, even that might not change much

I see this as the only thing that might make an impact. But it will probably be too late by the time people take action.

Stochastic violence like that won't do anything to help us here.

Don't get me wrong I'm totally fine with it, it just won't move the needle unfortunately

!bookworms this reminds me of the KSR “Ministry of the Future” review. The author thinks the majority will totally sympathize with eco-terrorists and governments will totally yield to them. Yeah I'm sure people will be thrilled if eco-terrorists blow up a coal power plant, one positive out of it is subs like collapse being banned after becoming a honeypot for green terrorist sympathizers.

I still think the more likely scenario is no eco-terrorism as enviromentalistcels are too soy and depressed to engage in violence besides giving social media upmarseys.

End the production of useless crap like iPhones every year or cheap plastic shit that breaks in a year.

Have manufacturers work on high quality stuff with fair working conditions and environmental regulations.

No Smart phone ever year. You get a easily fixable and sustainable Fairphone every five years made from recycled parts

Lmao !anticommunists !neolibs

Massive death tolls, mass migration and economic disruption, followed by famine and governmental instability, leading to authoritarianism and war. Can't wait. Yet people keep talking about polar bears and sea levels.
