Thank you for your article Sally. I don’t disagree with your perspective from Australia but it’s my opinion that we have already missed our opportunity to hold a devastating climate emergency at bay. Societies are not capable of embracing negative growth. Scaling non-carbon energy sources to sustain economic growth without oil, coal, gas, etc. seems improbable. We are stuck. The climate emergency will keep growing and disrupting our established economic paradigms so that social disruption leads to decline. Perhaps rapidly.
