In terms of an analogy - when we're going to hit a brick wall? We're doing about 300 km an hour towards a brick wall about, you know, we're 10 m away at the moment. So we're going to hit a catastrophe and the real question is what do you do after that?
In my feeling, only when we get a serious catastrophe, and I mean as in hundreds of millions of white people dying, not brown, forget about brown. We don't worry about brown people. If it's in Pakistan or Africa, we won't worry about it. It's got to be in Belgium or in the United States or some white country, lots of people dying there. Holy shit, this is serious. Well, in that situation, you have to ration. You would abolish industries, tourism would be gone, no more international flights, boom, there you take a few percent out of carbon. No more Bitcoin, anything you can eliminate straight away. And then rationing. You try to avoid people starving to death, these are mechanisms like we did for the second world war where as soon as it became obvious that if UK didn't throw everything it had at producing and purchasing weapons to fight the Germans, then they'd be speaking German not long after.
So in total, it would be total War economy Direction, and that means rationing of everything, so you have to get rationing systems together. You have to eliminate private jets. But funnily enough, I'd use private jets for sulfur dioxide seeding at the stratosphere, because they can reach the stratosphere whereas commercial jets can't, etc., etc., stuff on that scale.
And that's what we won't do it until after a huge catastrophe hits because nobody, and this is humanity in general, it isn't just economist here, we don't react to a crisis until after it's happened. And then the question is, do we react well enough to be able to reverse it?
So I go for all the stuff you're talking about, which was unpopular with your contemporaries, but I'd then also say we have to start preparing rationing schemes, developing our own alternative energy systems beforehand because we know the policymakers aren't going to do it fast enough. But the main thing is to get people ready for a wartime economy, restriction of consumption, focus upon alternative methods, and then we might have a chance.
