the FUCK dude
According to their models, the researchers conclude: “The human enterprise currently demands 1.56 times more than the amount that Earth can regenerate.”
So what's going to fix that? Reducing usage of resources by one third or reducing human population by one third? Socialism or barbarism?
Presumably just ending planned obsolescence would do a fucking lot for the over-consumption in the wealthy core.
doing away with the advertising industry make a pretty big difference too I suspect
I mean like 30% of everything produced ends up in a landfill without ever being used...
Not to mention that 1.56 is the human average. You have folks in the global south who are maybe operating at like .75 while Americans are like 4 or 5 (making those numbers up).
The capitalists and neolib pundits must be punished severely when the time comes.
I'd wager if you go back another 50 years it goes up to 95% or some shit. USA used to be covered in old growth forrest, had millions of large herbivores, flocks of birds that would black out the sun for days.
I’m pivoting from biophysics to ecological modeling for this reason.
