The emission reductions in the 11 high-income countries that have "decoupled" CO2 emissions from Gross Domestic Product (GDP) fall far short of the reductions that are necessary to limit global warming to 1.5°C or even just to "well below 2°C" and comply with international fairness principles, as required by the Paris Agreement, according to a paper published in The Lancet Planetary Health journal.

    Growth toward mass migration, major world-population reduction, possibly climate cycles that are less hospitable to humans...

    haha, here are the post growth policies that were recommended:

    • scale down energy-intensive and less-necessary forms of production (how else am I going to get richer?)

    • reduce the consumption of the rich (what's the point of being rich?)

    • shift from private cars to public transit (tell that to the poster boy EM)
