      This is an important comment. We need to collectively, outright, use less of everything.

      Admittedly, fighting even my own goddamn subconscious and its desires is tough. “Get that new motorcycle, it’s got better emissions standards than your old bike”… old one’s just fine.

        I appreciate that you found the comment valuable! It’s what the scientists say, but it’s not an easy thing to hear.

        Do you realize that no degrowth means billions more starve to death?

        Don’t get it twisted: Degrowth is the humane, empathetic choice.
