Well it’s either that or everyone dies. Pretty much the only options we’ve got. So, this may sound callous, but, that sucks.
For what it’s worth, I fix combustion engines for a living. I would likely be one of the displaced workers, maybe not the first wave, but it will trickle down. I’m not looking forward to the near necessity that I will need to adapt, but I understand what is required for the collective survival of the human race. If I were put out of a job because people have stopped driving ICE vehicles, I’d be thrilled. My monthly bills may not be, but that’s a problem I’m prepared to tackle.
Our current trajectory will get us all killed. There’s no question about it anymore. We are at a crossroads where we can choose to adapt or die and we are rapidly running out of time to choose. Those who cannot adapt will get left behind or else we’ll all go down together.
It’s a tough call to give up your living and life as it is for the hope of saving everyone. Especially if you’re unsure if it will do anything. For most people, the life of their family, community and so on come before that. And i can’t blame them at all, I’d be the same if it was me who was threatened by this.
There is so much work to be done fighting climate change that we could easily replace every job lost.
But the economy will have to de-grow sooner or later. It is isnt an option. Sustainability is not a choice, it is an inevitability.
I’m sure we theoretically could, but I’m not confident we will.
That’s another hard sell. Nobody wants to be the one getting sacked and have to figure out what to do
