Parts I like:

• How to have hope even if I believe in the worst possible case for the future
• Anti accelerationism
• Critical of magical scientism FALGSC falls into
• I 100% agree with the analysis on the closed possibility of WORLDWIDE anarchist revolution
• Beautiful work on the divide between developing/developed hot/cold climates. I was particularly slammed in the face by the recognition that some cold countries benefit from global heating.

Parts I dislike:

• Malthusianism
• It relies on the same premises that capitalist and imperialist realism does: that people are greedy, desire religious authoritarianism and fascinatingly, love destruction. Even the cynical readings of the consensus on the biological nature of people cannot lead you to the conclusions in this. I’m surprised by the wholesale rejection of the work done by Kropotkin et al in this. The view of humanity in this book seem dominated by the honestly, fascist view of people.
• Too much reliance of Lovelock - a scientist who feels, idk largely contrarian. This might be because desert is dated.

From wiki: He admits he was wrong. Additionally:

In a follow up interview Lovelock stated his support for natural gas; he now favors fracking as a low-polluting alternative to coal. He opposes the concept of "sustainable development", where modern economies might be powered by wind turbines, calling it meaningless drivel. He keeps a poster of a wind turbine to remind himself how much he detests them. In Novacene (2019) Lovelock proposes that benevolent superintelligence may take over and save the ecosystem, and states that the machines will need to keep organic life around to keep the planet's temperature habitable for electronic life
