What's amazing is that such an obvious truth needs saying. Yet it does.
Read the IPCC 4th assessment report on climate change. No real discussion that climate change might be showing us limits to how hard we can press the earth.
No mention, in the "Mitigation" chapters, on cutting back on human demands. Just a call for more efficiency, as if that can save the day, in an regime of endless growth.
Simply right. Steady state economics provides the only way out of the insanity.
